Location of Tchin-Tabaraden in Niger

Tchin-Tabaraden is a town located in the Azawagh region of Niger, north of the departement city of Tahoua. It is the market center for the Iwillimidan Tuareg. The first insurrectional movement for the autonomy of Tenere, the Tuareg region in central-north and western Niger, began here and in nearby Abalagh in 1985. In the neighboring oasis of In-Gall, the Cure Salee, or "the festival of the nomads", is held annually.
