Adré, Chad is an important border town in the Ouaddaï Region in the eastern part of the African country of Chad, near the Darfur region of Sudan. A key trade and transportation hub between Chad and Sudan, Adré is located in the Sahelian zone on the southern edge of the Sahara Desert, with an arid and hot climate, and an economy dominated by agro-pastoralism and small-scale cross-border commerce. Historically part of the Kingdom of Wadi Fira, the region retains a rich Arab-African cultural fusion, but has faced refugee flows and security challenges in recent years due to the impact of the conflict in Darfur. Adé is also an important site for humanitarian assistance and is strategic for regional stability.
