in 2023, USA for IOM gathered partners and practitioners in Washington D.C. and on-line for an informative conversation with IOM Afghanistan Chief of Mission Maria Moita, moderated by Anne Richard, USA for IOM Board Member. They discussed the complex crisis that Afghanistan is facing, driven by escalating food insecurity, constrained livelihood opportunities, as well as conflict-driven displacement, and most recently the major earthquakes that struck in June 2022 and October 2023. USA for IOM supports fundraising for ongoing programming, which supports relief operations in Afghanistan in response to mounting, complex humanitarian needs.
“On the day of the first earthquake we were already loading trucks with non-food items and tents to the most affected areas. One of the added values of IOM is our presence across the country, that we can mobilize response very quickly. Despite the challenges, staff are working day and night to provide assistance.” Maria Moita, IOM Afghanistan Chief of Mission
