The purpose of the Emergency Tracking Tool is to collect information on large and sudden population movements as well as on security and climate emergencies. Each year in Chad, during the rainy season (June-September), many localities are often hit by floods, affecting thousands of people. This dashboard presents information on people affected by flooding at the end of July 2022 in 23 neighborhoods in the city of N'Djamena, following heavy rains. The data collection was carried out at two levels: the most
affected neighbourhoods were first identified through consultations with communal district authorities, before surveys were conducted with delegates of the identified neighbourhoods to collect information on the impact of the floods on populations. Results indicated that 3,641 households (17,025 individuals) were affected by the floods.
