Red Cross of Chad

Red Cross of Chad, also known as CRC, was founded in 1983. It has its headquarters in N’Djamena, Chad.

In 2018, CRC trainers collaborated with international researchers from LFR International to create a lay first responder program in Am Timan. Investigators trained local motorcycle taxi drivers to provide first aid and transport. Over 12 months, first responders demonstrated a cost-effective prehospital emergency care alternative for rural African settings.[1]
