Why it matters

Thousands of Afghan women — widows, heads of households, victims of violence — face extreme poverty, illness, and forced returns. Emergency aid is a bridge between survival and dignity.

• Provide emergency packages (food, health, medical allowances) to 1,200 women
• Support refugee women in Iran and Pakistan: safe housing, school fees for children
• Deliver culturally-sensitive psychological counseling
• Social rehabilitation programs: retraining deprived women, peer support groups
• Collaborate with local networks to prevent forced child marriages in crisis situations

After fleeing my province, I lived with three children in Karachi. I couldn’t pay rent. I thought I might have to marry off my 12-year-old daughter. One emergency package and a counseling session prevented this.
