In Afghanistan, both urban and rural households face similar demands for healthcare, but the barriers to access are vastly different. the number of households without access to functional health facilities nearby has risen from 19% in 2021 to 30% in 2022.

In 2022, an estimated 4380 women in Afghanistan have died due to childbirth or pregnancy complications. This is an alarming statistic and a majority of these deaths are preventable. We must be committed to improving maternal health care and ensuring that women have access to quality healthcare.

Around 8 out of every 10 Afghan people drink unsafe water, which can lead to a variety of health issues, including diarrhea, cholera and other waterborne diseases. Inadequate access to clean water is a major problem in Afghanistan and is a consequence of decades of conflict, poverty and lack of infrastructure. Poor sanitation, lack of proper hygiene and inadequate water supplies all contribute to the problem. Much more needs to be done in order to ensure that everyone in the country has access to safe, clean drinking water.

The fact that women in Afghanistan were not getting medical tests does not mean they do not value visits to healthcare professionals. Seventy-one percent of Afghan women said they believe in the value of going to a healthcare professional, and 61% said they had been to a healthcare professional in the past 12 months.
However, access to these professionals will likely remain a challenge: In 2020, roughly one in three Afghans had no access to a functional health center within two hours of their home, according to the U.N. Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs.

Nearly a tenth of Afghan adolescent females (aged 15–19) give birth every year as a consequence of early marriage and lack of access to reproductive health information and services.
Girls and adolescents are far likelier to die of causes related to pregnancy than their older sisters. The pregnancy-related mortality ratio of women aged 15 to 19 in Afghanistan is estimated at 531 deaths per 100,000 live births compared to 257 deaths per 100,000 live births for young women between the ages of 20 and 24 years.

In Afghanistan, it is estimated that more than half the population experience depression, anxiety, and post-traumatic stress, but fewer than 10 percent receive adequate psychosocial support they need.

By stepping up our support and removing the stigma surrounding mental health, we can help lift the burden of trauma off the shoulders of those who have already suffered enough.
