Afghanistan Humanitarian Action
December 2022
October 2024

This 23-month (01/12/2022 – 31/10/2024) project funded by BHA (Bureau of Humanitarian Affairs) will be implemented in all provinces of Afghanistan. The four purposes of the project are: to equip humanitarian actors with multi sectoral data and information tools to contribute to increased evidence-based response planning and targeting (delivered by subpartner IMPACT); to establish community-led information pathways, coordination systems, service delivery platforms and referral mechanisms in areas of informal settlements to promote inclusive and integrated service provision, while providing tailored emergency protection assistance (delivered by ACTED and subpartner NRC); deliver effective, integrated and multi-sectoral humanitarian assistance and access to basics services for displacement-affected individuals living in or nearby ISETs, and provide shelter assistance to shock-affected individuals (delivered by ACTED); and provide for an emergency, flexible and mobile response to immediate humanitarian needs of individuals affected by sudden shocks, natural hazards, throughout Northern Afghanistan (delivered by ACTED).
