As a country already prone to natural disasters, climate change has increased Afghanistan’s likelihood of suffering extreme weather events. This is having devastating effects on access to food and has contributed to putting one million children at risk of severe malnutrition. Compounding this crisis, 2023 marked the country's third successive year plagued by drought-like conditions, with 35% of Afghanistan's population finding themselves confronting acute food insecurity. The drought has led to households struggling with malnutrition even after harvest.
