“In Chad, robotics is more than a field of science-it is a symbol of hope, innovation, and transformation. Every member of FIRST Global Team Chad shares the same belief: talent knows no borders, no origins, and no limits. Through determination, curiosity, and teamwork, young people can help solve challenges in their communities and contribute to a better world.
Our team brings together passionate high school students united by a shared desire to learn, create, and proudly represent Chad on the international stage.

Flora Amina Bivia, 16, is a student at Lycée La Référence Annexe de Farcha. This is her first time participating in the FIRST Global Challenge. Passionate about robotics and technology, she enjoys exploring technical systems and turning ideas into practical solutions. For Flora, this experience is an opportunity to grow her skills while showing that young people from Chad have a place in the global innovation community.

Mariam Ikram, 14, is a student at Académie Royale. She has a strong interest in mechanics and programming and enjoys taking on technical challenges. Through FIRST Global, she hopes to deepen her knowledge, strengthen her teamwork skills, and inspire more young people in Chad to pursue science and technology.

Abdelmadjid Bechir, 17, is driven by the pride of representing his country. His greatest motivation is to demonstrate the talent, determination, and potential of Chadian youth while collaborating with teams from more than 190 nations. He hopes to honor Chad, build friendships across cultures, and prove that innovation can thrive anywhere.

The team is mentored by Balé Hormo, who has been supporting FIRST Global Team Chad since 2024. He believes that robotics and STEM education should be accessible to every young person, regardless of where they are born. His mission is to show that innovation is not reserved for developed nations and that Chadian youth have the creativity, intelligence, and resilience to contribute to the future of technology.

This season has not been without challenges. Limited resources, logistical constraints, and financial obstacles have required creativity, perseverance, and teamwork. Thanks to the unwavering support of parents, mentors, partners, and volunteers, the team continues to prepare with determination, making the most of every opportunity.

Beyond the competition, our mission is to change perceptions. We want the world to see Chad not only through its past challenges, but through the talent, creativity, and resilience of its young people. We believe that knowledge has no geographical or social boundaries and that every young person deserves the opportunity to dream, innovate, and shape the future.

As we prepare to compete alongside more than 190 nations, we carry with us not only the flag of Chad but also the hopes of a new generation determined to prove that great ideas can come from anywhere.

We are FIRST Global Team Chad. We are not only representing our country-we are representing the limitless potential of a generation that refuses to let circumstances define its future.”
