    EU mobilizes €150mn emergency aid as Afghanistan's humanitarian crisis deepens

    EU mobilizes €150mn emergency aid as Afghanistan's humanitarian crisis deepens

    As the humanitarian crisis in Afghanistan worsens, the European Union (EU) has pledged €150mn in emergency aid to mitigate the risk of famine and alleviate the suffering of millions. This substantial contribution marks a critical response to the escalating needs in the region, with a focus on providing immediate relief to the most vulnerable populations.

    The allocation of funds includes support for various initiatives both within Afghanistan and in neighboring countries accommodating Afghan refugees. Inside Afghanistan, nearly €126mn will be channeled to assist humanitarian partners working on the ground, addressing urgent needs such as food assistance, shelter, healthcare, and access to clean water and sanitation facilities. 

    Additionally, approximately €14.5mn has been earmarked for Education in Emergencies, aiming to provide educational support to millions of children and adolescents, particularly girls who face barriers to accessing secondary schooling.

    In Pakistan, over €11mn will be directed towards meeting the humanitarian needs of Afghan refugees and their host communities. This aid will encompass vital services including legal assistance, healthcare, nutrition, and education. Meanwhile, an additional €4mn will be allocated to enhance disaster preparedness efforts in the country, aiming to mitigate the impact of future crises.

    In Iran, nearly €11mn will be provided to address the needs of displaced Afghan populations and host communities, reinforcing support for those affected by the ongoing crisis.

    The announcement of this aid package comes amidst a gathering of senior representatives from the international community in Brussels, convened to discuss the deepening food and health crisis in Afghanistan. Janez Lenarčič, the EU's Commissioner for Crisis Management, underscored the severity of the situation, emphasizing that over 50% of Afghanistan's population is in dire need of humanitarian assistance, with more than 85% living in poverty.

    Afghanistan faces multifaceted challenges, including food insecurity, limited access to healthcare, and exposure to natural hazards exacerbated by climate change. Recent floods have ravaged large swathes of the country, compounding the already dire humanitarian situation.

    With over 23.7mn people in need of assistance, Afghanistan remains one of the world's largest humanitarian emergencies. The risk of famine looms large, threatening the lives and livelihoods of millions. Moreover, the crisis has far-reaching implications, extending beyond Afghanistan's borders to impact neighboring countries like Pakistan and Iran.
