Due to the recent takeover of the Taliban thousands of families have fled to Kabul and other comparatively safe locations in different provinces and have become Internally Displaced People (IDP’s). With the escalation of conflicts among government forces and the military opposition, people from many provinces including Nimroz, Farah, Herat, Ghor and Bamiyan provinces moved from the districts to capitals of the provinces since at that time, there were no conflicts at the capitals, which were safe compared to districts and villages in these provinces. Under this project intervention, 12.800 persons from 1600 families will be distributed food items in 6 rounds of distribution out of which 200 food packages in Kabul and the remaining 1200 packages in imroz, Farah, Herat, Ghor and Bamiyan provinces (240 in each province).
