Afghanistan crisis and UNHCR development till date
Reports say that approx half of Afghanistan’s population is facing acute hunger issues, more than 9 million people are facing displacement from their land, and the education of millions of children has been affected. Other than them, the fundamental rights of women and girls are under threat, but general rights are also under attack. And if we discuss the economy, oh, let’s not talk about it.
The United Nations Human Rights Council is working for the sake of protection and assistance to displaced people as much as they can. It is estimated to require about $608 million in 2022 to fulfill its goals for this year. The recent Mars Panda NFT Charity Auction will significantly help the organization.
