Displacement and conflict have struck Afghanistan into crisis. Thousands of families are currently at risk, with the threat of nationwide poverty looming. According to UNDP representatives, 97% of Afghans could plunge into poverty by mid-2022. As per the UN analysis, we are simply counting down to catastrophe. Among those at risk are 3.2 million children under five, who are expected to suffer from acute malnutrition by the end of the year. More than 600,000 Afghans have been displaced this year, 80 per cent of which are women and children. The only shelter available to some is a tent, with no adequate protection, all of which is about to worsen in the coming winter months. The elderly who have no way of income and self-sustenance have no means of acquiring food, water, and a warm roof over their heads. As a community we must take action and help those with nowhere to turn. From only £25 you can provide one person with a winter bundle, this includes a blanket, socks and a shawl.
