Campaign Story

January 2022: Winter snow has started to blanket many parts of Afghanistan. This has put 8 million people on the brink of famine. Over a million children under the age of five are at risk of dying over the next three months without immediate help.

Adding to this the country has to deal with governmental changes, a severe economic collapse, and the worst drought in 27 years have brought Afghanistan to a dangerous point.

Temperatures in winter are expected to drop below -15C. The severity of this is understood when we learn that over 3.5 million of our brothers and sisters are displaced from their homes. They are living in tents and most don't even have enough food to have one proper meal. 

More than 3 million children under five are expected to suffer from acute malnutrition before March, with at least a million of these at risk of dying. The head of the World Food Programme describes the situation as “the worst humanitarian crisis on earth”. 

December 2021: It's all over the news and we hear devastating news everyday - Afghanistan is under a state of emergency. Millions of Afghanis are suffering and struggling to even put food on the table for their families.

18.4 million Afghans need humanitarian support and this number has doubled in less than a year. 75% of those in need are women and children. The world media is focusing on the people trying to flee the country.

But there is an invisible crisis of millions of people across the country dependent on humanitarian aid, who cannot leave the country. The current insecurity is continuing to fuel a wave of internal displacement as people seek safety for themselves and their families. 

Internal displacement in Afghanistan has soared by 53% since the start of August, from 360,000 to 550,000 people, joining 2.9 million Afghans already internally displaced across the country at the end of 2020.

In Kabul alone, some 17,600 internally displaced people are acutely in need of food, water, health care and other aid. Along with the ongoing political and civil turmoil, Afghanistan is also experiencing a major drought. The drought is reported to be one of the worst droughts to hit the country in decades.

In addition to this, the COVID-19 pandemic spells a darker tomorrow for the poor and needy.In January 2021 alone, the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) said that an estimated more than 320,000 Afghans were displaced due to the drought. The drought has affected over 12 million people, OCHA said.

More than 6 million of them are unable to buy enough food, and more than two million are facing severe food insecurity. With the ongoing political turmoil, families have left behind everything and made a run for their lives.

They are living on the streets of different provinces without any tents, food, or security. Al-Qamar's team on the ground reported that a family lost a child out of starvation.
