The United Nations Development Programme, in collaboration with the government of Japan, has launched a new $2.35 million project in Afghanistan. This initiative aims to increase the resilience of vulnerable communities in Balkh and Nimroz provinces.

The primary goal of this plan is to support populations facing challenges such as climate change, economic instability, and the pressure of returnees. The program places a special focus on empowering Afghan women, youth, and female-headed households.

Furthermore, the project seeks to reduce dependence on illicit economies by promoting alternative livelihoods. It also aims to improve access to productive infrastructure, including irrigation systems and water resource management, ensuring long-term stability.
