Acted

Who are we

Acted works with 19 million people in 43 countries at the intersection of humanitarian aid, development, and climate and environmental programs. Through deep understanding of local contexts and the adoption of emerging technologies, we save lives, alleviate suffering, and protect and restore our planet. Working with a growing ecosystem of local, national, and international partners, we pursue a common goal: a 3Zero world: Zero Exclusion, Zero Carbon, Zero Poverty.

Who are we looking for?

You bring the key skills expected of a humanitarian and development worker, as well as an active climate and environmental awareness, and you can navigate the challenges that arise when environmental and human suffering intersect. You have an entrepreneurial spirit: you identify opportunities, connect the dots, adapt your approach to different environments, and take calculated risks in pursuit of results. You combine principles with pragmatism, and ambition with humility.

Acted Tchad

Present in Chad, Acted works to support vulnerable populations in the Lake and Ouaddai Provinces, as well as in N'Djamena. In 2025, the organization implemented 11 projects with a budget of €10.5 million. Its operations are coordinated from N'Djamena and implemented through four field offices: Bol and Daboua in the Lake Province, and Adré and Chokoyan in the Ouaddai Province.

In the Lake Chad region, Acted supports internally displaced persons following attacks by armed groups through the RRM mechanism, which it co-leads, and provides food security assistance. It also participates in strengthening the resilience of populations through education, water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) projects, and livelihoods initiatives.

In Ouaddai, Acted redeployed in April 2023 to respond to the unprecedented influx of Sudanese refugees and Chadian returnees fleeing the fighting in Sudan. Through a multi-sectoral emergency approach encompassing shelter/NFI, CCCM, and protection, Acted addresses the vital needs of displaced persons in informal settlements and reception camps. Since 2025, Acted has been working to strengthen the economic resilience of Sudanese refugees with the support of host communities in the Chokoyan prefecture.

Acted's actions in Chad are based on recognized multi-sectoral technical expertise, rapid deployment capacity, a data-driven approach, strong local acceptance, and increased community participation.
