AGP Executive Report
Last update: 9 hours agoDisaster Response: OCHA says natural disasters in Afghanistan have hit 97,320 people since Jan 2, with 97 killed and 331 injured; floods and flash floods are the main driver, damaging nearly 10,000 homes and fully destroying over 2,100, while agricultural land and roads take the hardest blow.

Climate Risk & Recovery Gaps: OCHA warns that repeated hazards and weak infrastructure are compounding vulnerability, pushing families deeper into dependence on aid as recovery barely keeps up. Livelihoods & Environment: Women in Herat are turning to beekeeping as a safer income path, supporting pollinated crops and food security while offering legal work for thousands of women. Regional Resilience Planning: Bhutan’s 7.5 quake simulation in Thimphu—supported by Nepal experts and including Afghanistan among CDRI members—highlights how disaster preparedness networks are expanding across the region.
