October 2024 – Afghanistan continues to experience deteriorating humanitarian conditions, with high levels of need cutting across all provinces and sectors. In 2024, an estimated 23.7 million people require humanitarian assistance due to the impacts of many years of conflict, chronic food insecurity, displacement, broad economic crisis, and climatic events. With GAC’s support, Aga Khan Foundation Canada helps provide lifesaving humanitarian health, nutrition, and psychosocial support in Afghanistan. Project activities include: (1) providing essential medicines and medical supplies; (2) conducting training sessions on maternal and newborn health; (3) providing nutrition services; and (4) conducting community information-sharing session to promote the utilization of these essential services.
