Notre environnement de travail

Afghanistan remains one of the world's most protracted and complex humanitarian crises. Decades of conflict, political transition, economic collapse, and recurrent natural hazards—including droughts and a recent earthquake—have severely eroded livelihoods, basic services, and coping mechanisms. Over half of the population requires humanitarian assistance, with acute food insecurity and critically high malnutrition rates, particularly among children, further compounded by large scale returns of Afghans from neighboring countries. Humanitarian actors operate in an increasingly constrained and complex environment. At the same time, humanitarian funding continues to decline despite escalating needs, threatening the continuity of life saving assistance and placing millions at heightened risk. Action Against Hunger (ACF) has been present in Afghanistan since 1979. The current country strategy prioritizes a more integrated approach to addressing the underlying drivers of malnutrition, with a strong focus on community based programming, localization, and sustained emergency preparedness and response capacity.
