After a year of intense fighting and displacement, acute drought and food shortage, Afghans are now in the grip of a harsh, unforgiving winter. If these conditions continue, loss of life and with it, loss of hope for a better future is imminent. https://t.co/SrjCLh2Esn

Millions in Afghanistan are in the grip of a worsening humanitarian crisis. They need more than aid alone. Robust investments in health, education + livelihoods will benefit all Afghans – including internally displaced people and returnees – and mitigate further displacement. https://t.co/IDVKFUj78f

Afghan asylum seekers have fled in thousands to Iran in 2021 to seek protection. Iran has provided some of them with emergency assistance, but much more needs to be done. Many of the new arrivals I met highlighted their urgent needs, including for shelter and education. https://t.co/hndSLA5udL

Globally, 1 in 5 women experience violence. Those who are displaced face a heightened risk. Local and national authorities must do more to protect the rights of refugee, internally displaced and stateless women and girls. #16Days https://t.co/XPnJuDHHaN
