Africa · #150 of 206
Chad scores 20 on Individualism, ranking #150 of 206 in the dataset. That is 15.4 points below the global average and 2.4 points below the Africa regional average.

In practical analysis, this dimension is useful because it connects broad values to visible patterns in workplaces, classrooms, public institutions, and family expectations. Use Individualism as a comparison signal, not a stereotype. Hofstede scores describe national-level tendencies; individuals and organizations inside Chad can differ sharply by region, class, generation, profession, and local history.
