Afghanistan continues to face a severe food security and livelihood crisis. Millions of people struggle to meet their daily food requirements due to poverty, unemployment, displacement, reduced humanitarian funding, climate shocks, and limited economic opportunities.
Recent assessments project that approximately 17.4 million people are experiencing severe food insecurity, while millions of children and women face acute malnutrition. Women-headed households, returnees, internally displaced persons, and vulnerable communities remain among the most affected populations.
Sustainable irrigation and agricultural development are essential for improving food security, increasing household income, reducing dependence on humanitarian assistance, and strengthening resilience against future shocks.
