Brochure, flyer, fact-sheetHigh-profileAfghanistan – Revised Humanitarian Response Plan 2018–2021 2018
Also available in:
No results found.Conflict, natural disasters, internal displacement and cross-border movements continue to increase food insecurity in Afghanistan. Unemployment, crop pests and natural hazards increase the vulnerability of already severely food-insecure populations, many living in hard-to-reach areas. The current drought is expected to detrimentally affect chronically food insecure farming households (approximately 2.2 million people), of which 1.4 million will become acutely food insecure and require emergency assistance over the coming months and into the next lean season. To assist 1 million people, FAO requires USD 21 million for the period January to December 2018. -

No results found.The humanitarian situation in Afghanistan is characterized by a long running conflict and increasing natural disasters, occurring in the backdrop of declining economic conditions due to erosion of livelihoods and employment opportunities. These undesirable factors are fuelling displacements, reducing access to food and agricultural production, and driving unemployment. The ability of vulnerable populations to cope with the crisis has been increasingly exhausted. In 2020, FAO aims to increase the resilience of agriculture-dependent livelihoods, while addressing the immediate acute food insecurity needs. -

FAO in the 2019 humanitarian appeals
2019Also available in:
No results found.The trifecta of ongoing conflict, worst drought in decades and compounding poverty have contributed to a devolving humanitarian crisis in Afghanistan. This means limited food production and depleted agricultural assets, which is affecting the livelihoods of those most vulnerable. To restore agricultural production and protect livestock production, while strenghtening coordination, FAO requires USD 35 million to assist 1.4 million people from January to December 2019.

BookletHigh-profileFAO Strategy on Climate Change 2022–2031 2022The FAO Strategy on Climate Change 2022–2031 was endorsed by FAO Council in June 2022. This new strategy replaces the previous strategy from 2017 to better FAO's climate action with the Strategic Framework 2022-2031, and other FAO strategies that have been developed since then. The Strategy was elaborated following an inclusive process of consultation with FAO Members, FAO staff from headquarters and decentralized offices, as well as external partners. It articulates FAO's vision for agrifood systems by 2050, around three main pillars of action: at global and regional level, at country level, and at local level. The Strategy also encourages key guiding principles for action, such as science and innovation, inclusiveness, partnerships, and access to finance.
