  • Humanitarian Overview - Farah Province OCHA Contact: Shahrokh Pazhman
    Humanitarian Overview - Farah Province OCHA Contact: Shahrokh Pazhman February 2014 http://afg.humanitarianresponse.info/ Context: Farah province is the most contested in the Western Region with civilians in the northern, central and eastern districts significantly exposed to conflict between ANSF and AGEs. Basic services provision outside of the provincial capital is minimal. The province has few resources, while insecurity has affected the presence and activity of NGOs and the funding of Donors. Key Messages 1. The province has the highest risk profile in the Western Region and one of the highest for Afghanistan as a result of poor access to basic health services, restricted humanitarian access and exposure to drought. Insecurity severely hampers the delivery of basic services and humanitarian assistance to Bala Buluk, Bakwa, Gulistan, and Purchaman. More than a third of the population in the province suffers from poor access to health care centres and very low vaccination coverage. Access strategies as well institutional commitment by relevant departments are urgently required to improve this negative indicator. The limited presence of humanitarian organization must be offset by additional monitoring from Hirat-based regional clusters and regular engagement with provincial authorities. People in Need Population (CSO 2012) Humanitarian Organizations Transition Status Present with Current Operations 6,302 conflict IDPs from Total: 482,400 UNICEF, UNHCR, WHO, IOM, CHA, Fully transferred to the 2011 to 2013 (UNHCR) Male: 51.3% - Female: 48.7% VWO, ARCS, ICRC, and VARA Afghan National Army, 40,033 natural disaster Urban:7.3% - Rural: 92.7% 31 December 2012 affected from 2012 to 2013 (NATO).
