IOM: Two-Thirds of Afghanistan will Need Urgent Aid In 2023

The International Organization for Migration (IOM) said in a report that two-thirds of Afghanistan's population will require urgent humanitarian assistance in 2023.

IOM seeks to mobilize US$ 450 million to address the humanitarian and recovery needs of over 7.3 million people in Afghanistan.

“Through this appeal, IOM seeks to mobilize US$ 450 million to address the humanitarian and recovery needs of over 7.3 million people in Afghanistan, including internally displaced persons (IDPs), cross-border returnees, and host communities,” IOM’s report reads.

Meanwhile, several Afghan citizens who are facing economic challenges asked the humanitarian organizations to increase the humanitarian aid to Afghanistan.

“We ask that employment opportunities be provided so that people have access to food forever,” said Ghulam Ali, the sole breadwinner of a family of 12 members.

"Humanitarian aid that was provided by relief organizations in Afghanistan did not have any economic effectiveness,” said Abdul Nasir Reshtia, an economist.

The Ministry of Economy emphasized need for the continuation of humanitarian aid to Afghanistan.

"Afghanistan currently requires both humanitarian aid and development and exploration aid, and assistance should be provided in the areas of agriculture, the launch of macro-economic projects, and energy," said Abdul Latif Nazari, deputy of the Ministry of Economy.

The UN previously reported that 28 million people in Afghanistan need relief, of whom six million are at risk of famine.
