Last week, iACT team members Gabriel Stauring and Sara-Christine Dallain completed iACT’s 24th trip to eastern Chad and the organization’s first visit to refugee sites in Cameroon. It was a momentous trip for iACT and we’re excited to share the highlights, insights, and learnings with you!

Here’s an overview of the trip—but for more details and stories check out the full Trip Report.

In camp Goz Amer, eastern Chad the team worked with its all-refugee Assessment Team to complete a follow-up assessment of the first Little Ripples Ponds students, conducted leadership training with iACT refugee Project Coordinators and Little Ripples Education Directors, and observed the Refugees United Soccer Academy (RUSA). The team also visited camp Djabal to meet with partner Jesuit Refugee Service (JRS), refugee friends, and RUSA coaches. 

Following Chad, at the request of JRS, the team traveled to Cameroon for the first time in order to conduct a needs assessment and explore the opportunity to expand iACT programs to support the needs of refugees from the Central African Republic. The team launched the first-ever Refugees United Soccer Academy-CAR, in refugee site Gado, Cameroon! Learn more and meet the coaches of the new Soccer Academy!
