Here's her story of resilience and determination while navigating challenges. ⬇️ *Name has been changed
Persistent drought means many families do not have clean water. 💧 With new contributions from @ksrcharity and @SaudiFund_Dev through the Afghanistan Humanitarian Trust Fund, facilitated by @isdb_group and @OIC_OCI, UNICEF will build sustainable water systems for 64,000 people.
Thank you, Finland for your continuing support to STFA! With backing by MFA 🇫🇮, STFA unites the UN to #DeliverAsOne for the people of Afghanistan, with a special focus on empowering women and girls. Your support makes a difference. 🇫🇮🤝🌍
Conflict. Malnutrition. Poverty. Economic decline. Erosion of rights. And now locusts. Will the people of #Afghanistan ever catch a break? They need our sustained support and commitment.
Today is World Malaria Day. In #Afghanistan, there were 125,788 malaria cases reported in 2022 -- 45% increase compared to 2021. About 90% of cases are from 4 eastern provinces: Nangarhar, Laghman, Kunar & Nuristan. Time to deliver zero malaria: invest, innovate, implement.
2/4Needs in Afghanistan will deteriorate further unless humanitarian space improves & donors urgently step up to enable aid agencies to maintain the world’s largest response. In 2023, US $4.62 billion is needed to assist 23.7 million people & fend off hunger, disease & death.
3/4 While the Taliban de-facto authorities have taken a series of decisions that have negatively impacted the ability of humanitarian actors to mount a full-scale response, this is not the time to turn our backs on the people of Afghanistan. They need everyone’s solidarity.
4/4 The humanitarian and entire international community must do whatever they can to stay the course, including by releasing funding already allocated for Afghanistan and not withholding future funding.
1/4 Afghanistan is at a tipping point. The urgent priority right now is to maintain the humanitarian response in the current operating environment to the best extent possible, avert famine, prevent disease outbreaks & avoid excess mortality.
⚠️ Six million people in #Afghanistan are on the brink of famine. This is among the highest number of people facing potential famine globally. A large-scale humanitarian catastrophe could unfold unless urgent funding is secured. We must act now.
As the unprecedented crackdown on women's right continues in #Afghanistan the response to ongoing humanitarian crisis remains unfunded. Read my statement: bit.ly/3GmGYPq
Women humanitarians bring life-saving services to women & girls. They are essential to delivering humanitarian assistance to millions of people. #Afghanistan
The ban on female natl staff working with the UN represents yet another cruel blow against Afghan women everywhere, not least among I/NGOs who shoulder the mainstay of the humanitarian response, and who have done so under very difficult conditions since December. We 🙏🏻 them.
Secretary-General @antonioguterres strongly condemns the Taliban’s decision to ban Afghan women from working with the @UN in Afghanistan. This is a violation of the inalienable fundamental human rights of women. 👇👇 un.org/sg/en/content/…
Full update and statement: UN protests order from de facto authorities prohibiting Afghan women from working with the United Nations in #Afghanistan: bit.ly/3MoxAyJ
The @UN in #Afghanistan expresses serious concern that female national UN staff have been prevented from reporting to work in Nangarhar province. We remind de facto authorities that United Nations entities cannot operate and deliver life-saving assistance without female staff.

“Millions will suffer” because of the Taliban preventing female aid workers across Afghanistan from working, says @NRC_Egeland, head of the Norwegian Refugee Council. “We cannot do our work without our female colleagues… We have to have a reversal of this ban.”
