United Nations: Humanitarian aid to Afghanistan has decreased by 1.4 billion
OCHA, the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs in Kabul, announced that it has reduced its aid to Afghanistan from $4.6 billion to $3.2 billion in 2023. Ocha published a report and said that the caretaker government’s restrictions on the work of women aid workers were involved in this “operational change”. It goes on to say that recent bans on women in non-governmental organizations and UN agencies have added another layer of complexity to the already challenging protection environment and further limited the operational capacity of partners. The statement stated that Afghanistan is dealing with the worst humanitarian crisis and two-thirds of the country’s population is in need of humanitarian aid. According to the statistics provided by OCHA, the number of needy people in Afghanistan has increased from 28.3 million at the beginning of this year to 28.8 million. The Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) says 20 million of these people are a priority, and $2.26 billion is urgently needed to help them over the next six months. This is despite the fact that the caretaker government has imposed many restrictions on the work, education and social activities of women and girls in Afghanistan in the last two years. The government has banned women and girls from working in government offices, non-governmental organizations and United Nations offices, from going to school and university. The Ministry of Education of the Afghan government has only allowed girls to go to school up to the sixth grade. Officials of the current government have repeatedly said that they allow women to work and study based on “Islamic law and Afghan culture”. However, aid organizations have warned that the ban on the work of female aid workers in Afghanistan has affected the delivery and distribution of aid to Afghans who are in dire need of aid.
