Snow and ice will soon block roads in hard-to-reach areas across Afghanistan, leaving thousands without access to fresh supplies and services for months. IOM teams are reaching remote communities to assist all those in need with blankets, warm clothing, shelter items and cash.

Since 2021, most #Afghans have seen their earnings decrease or disappear. Earthquakes & forced returns worsened the crisis, hitting women & children the hardest. Watch how a resilient Afghan woman expanded her business & created jobs w/ IOM's support. 🙏 @EU_Partnerships @aics_it
