Afghan families gather at the Distribution site of WFP Special Nutritious Food to Pregnant and Lactating Mothers with Acute Malnutrition (AM PLW) and Children aged 6-59 months with moderate Acute Malnutrition (MAM children) at an Internally Displaced Camp on September 29, 2021, in the outskirt of Herat, Afghanistan. Since the Taliban retook control of Afghanistan in August 2021, the economy has suffered after the world aid funding stopped, which has created a humanitarian crisis. Most art, culture, and pastimes have been banned. The female population has also had to quit jobs and young girls after the age of 12 can no longer go to school or further education.
