UK humanitarian aid to Afghanistan 2023-24

Information Note

Client:
Independent Commission for Aid Impact
Year:
2024

This report found that UK aid has made a meaningful difference in Afghanistan but funding has now fallen from the level it was at in the first two years following the 2021 Taliban takeover. ICAI heard reports of ‘donor fatigue’ as the world’s attention turns to other crises. It also noted that delivery of aid remains challenging, in part due to Taliban restrictions on women working for the UN and other humanitarian organisations.
