In the Zabout refugee camp in eastern Chad, ALIMA provides medical and psychological care for survivors of gender-based violence (GBV).
Mental healthcare is a central component of the humanitarian response. It helps support people who have experienced severe trauma and offers them a safe space where they can be heard and receive follow-up care.
This video, centered on the testimony of Ami — whose identity has been protected — illustrates the essential role of mental health in crisis settings.
Between January and May 2025, more than 45,000 people were cared for by ALIMA teams in refugee camps in eastern Chad. With support from the European Union.
