SDG 8.5 is a positive multiplier for several development priorities emphasized in the 2030 Vision.  It is closely associated with prioity investments in youth empowerment (Target 4.4) and skills development/ and upskilling (Target 8.2), and an important investment that helps address SDGs that require acceleration, particularly in the reduction of poverty and vulnerability (Targets 1.2, 1.4) , food security (target 2.1) and across several health targets (Goal 3 reduction of hunger and malnutrition) and SDG 3 (reduce maternal mortality, end the AIDS pandemic, tuberculosis, among other diseases.)

Because 76% of the Chadian population lives in rural areas, differentiated strategies are required to address local development in rural areas, with a focus on reducing poverty and vulnerabilities to shocks and disasters related to climate change. To this end, integrated policy choices that target: (i) the development of community infrastructure, including markets, solar energy and agricultural facilities; (ii) support for the structuring and capacity-building of actors in the world rural areas; (iii) support for the revitalization of the productive sectors, particularly agriculture and livestock; (iv) the development of value chains through the processing of local products; and (v) the promotion of inclusive finance.

Sustainable transport and infrastructure is a longstanding national priority and investment area.  As part of the National Development Plan 2024-2028 currently being finalized, the development of road infrastructure is one of the major national priorities, with around 50 projects to be carried out over the coming years.

Its significance has grown in response to changing energy needs and the provision of basic services for all (Target 11.1). Facilitating the mobility of people, goods and merchandise and establishing affordable and sustainable transport systems promotes job creation (Target 8.5), the reduction of poverty and inequalities (Target 1.1) and social, political and economic inclusion for all (Target 10.2).

In particular, it will have an impact on social and economic SDGs , and on partnerships through the development of public-private partnerships (Target 17.6).

The establishment of effective, accountable and transparent institutions is a key priority and complex undertaking, as a foundation to longer term social and economic stability, and a driver of robust environmental policies.

The achievement of the target, as part of integrated policy combination that consolidate peace, justice and the rule of law, strengthen the social contract of trust between institutions and the population and the creation. The focus on effective institutions is understood in Chad as a driver of a more favourable framework and enabling environment for private investment and sustainable economic growth. Important milestones have been laid in the context of the current political transition, in particular through the negotiation and signature with some 40 armed groups of the Doha Agreement for peace in Chad (August 2022) and the organization of an Inclusive and Sovereign National Dialogue to discuss the future of the country, politically, economically and socially.
