2030 Ambition

A new ambition
driven by
Chad Connection 2030

Chad Connection 2030 is built around a central concept: connection. Connection with its internal and external geography. Connection with its heritage as the cradle of humanity. Connection with its potential to build a diversified and inclusive economy.

This bold vision aims to fully reveal Chad’s role as a strategic crossroads at the heart of Africa:

By leveraging its geographic position at the crossroads of the Sahel, West Africa, the Maghreb, and Central Africa, giving Chad all the assets to become a key corridor for intra-African trade.

By developing the potential of its population, which is exceptionally young (more than 50% of its 19 million inhabitants are under the age of 20).

By capitalizing on its vast territory (1,284 million km²), its significant agro-pastoral potential, and its mining resources, which complement its oil sector.

Through the deployment of an unprecedented investment plan — both public and private, domestic and international — amounting to approximately USD 30 billion, or XAF 18,000 billion.

Chad,
a logistics hub
at the heart
of Africa

Located in the heart of the African continent, Chad shares borders with Libya, Sudan, the Central African Republic, Cameroon, Nigeria, and Niger. Its central position places it at the crossroads of North Africa, West Africa, and the Sahel. Chad sits at the intersection of three major regional economic zones: the Economic Community of Central African States (ECCAS), the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS), and the Community of Sahel-Saharan States (CEN-SAD). Its location makes Chad a strategic hub and an attractive destination for investment.
