Chad diaspora in Gabon

People from Chad in Gabon meet here, city by city. Each community is a neighbourhood, not a crowd, so if yours is missing, start it.

Communities by city

Therefore Gabon ranks number 8 among the destinations of the Chad diaspora.

However, the figure counts migrants, not their children born here. The real community is therefore larger.

Where to meet people from Chad in Gabon

No community for people from Chad exists in Gabon on Compatri yet. However, one first member is enough to open one in their city.

As soon as a community starts, its meetups show up on the events page, with the date, the venue and the number of attendees.

Compatri follows cities such as Libreville and Port-Gentil, and each one can host its community.

Joining the Chad community in Gabon

Compatri brings diasporas together where they live. First, you choose the community of your city. Then you discover what its members organise: meals, parties, afterworks or mutual aid. Finally, you message compatriots who share your interests.

You can also host your own meetup: a meal, an outing or a party. It then appears to members of your city, and you follow sign-ups from your account.

Your exact location never appears: other members only see an approximate area. In addition, joining a community and attending events costs nothing.
