Funding cuts to Afghanistan are the biggest threat to helping women, aid agency chief warns

  • Funding cuts to Afghanistan are the biggest threat to helping the country's women, according to Jan Egeland, Secretary-General of the Norwegian Refugee Council.
  • The Norwegian Refugee Council helped 772,484 Afghans in 2022, but that number fell to 491,435 in 2023, with half of its beneficiaries being women.
  • Egeland stated that women and girls in Afghanistan face more obstacles in accessing health care and education due to restrictions and a shortage of female medical professionals.
  • Egeland emphasized that the biggest threat to the future well-being of Afghan women is the lack of education and dwindling financial support for humanitarian assistance.
