The ongoing conflict in Nigeria, Niger, Cameroon and Chad, provoked displacements in Chad evaluated at 131,470 people (IDPs and Chadian returnees) in the Lake Chad region according to the Master List of the CCCM/Shelter Cluster in June 2018. Due to the withdrawal of the Chadian army from Niger, a wave of Chadians in Niger returned back to Chad for fear of increased insecurity. These people are often with few possessions and in need of assistance in shelter/NFIs and protection. In the Southern part of the Lake Chad Region, people started to return to the islands but are still doing pendular movements to Bol or Baga Sola for agricultural reasons or/and humanitarian assistance.
The Human development index in Lake Chad region is the lowest in Chad. These displacements put therefore pressure on an already dire situation of host communities that have to share the meagre resources. People are currently displaced in 64 villages and 124 displacement sites.
The 2013 conflict in Central African Republic between members of the military, anti Balaka and Seleka prompted a massive return to Chad that continued up to 2017. The returned Chadians in the South Region are estimated 42,576 people.

More than 55% of targeted population did not received NFIs • Only 314 households received a mid-term/durable shelter solution in the Lake Chad Region.
