Nearly 150,000 Afghans have returned from Iran and Pakistan this year, according to UNHCR. Many arrived exhausted and uncertain about what comes next. Hijratullah and his sister Naila were recently deported from Pakistan with almost nothing. “We were forced to leave without our belongings or clothes,” says Hijratullah. After years of displacement and uncertainty, the family is now rebuilding their lives in #Afghanistan. With funds from Stichting Vluchteling, we supported 2,169 returnees and host community members through cash assistance, winter support, shelter repairs, WASH (water, sanitation and hygiene) services, education, and psychosocial support. “PIN gave me $300 in cash assistance and provided firewood, coal, heaters, and blankets,” says Hijratullah. “They repaired our shelter, built latrines and water tanks, and helped our children return to school.” Learn more at https://www.peopleinneed.net Follow us on X, LinkedIn, Facebook and Instagram.
