How are members of Chad’s National Assembly chosen?

Under the 2023 constitution of Chad, members of the National Assembly are chosen through direct election. These members serve six-year terms, which are renewable.1

The National Assembly functions as one of the two houses of the country's bicameral parliament, the other being the Senate. While National Assembly members are directly elected by the public, the composition of the Senate differs: two-thirds of its members are indirectly elected by an electoral college consisting of municipal and provincial councillors, and the remaining one-third are appointed by the president.1
