Future Funding Mechanisms for the Afghanistan Crisis – Bridging Humanitarian and Durable Solutions Needs.
Afghanistan faces overlapping humanitarian, economic, and protection crises, now further compounded by a sharp increase in refugee returns from neighbouring countries. The unexpectedly large number of forced and spontaneous returnees in 2025 has underscored the urgent need for durable-solutions-oriented funding that bridges between humanitarian response, basic human needs, and early recovery.
At the same time, the withdrawal of major development financing, combined with sanctions and access restrictions, has created a funding vacuum that prevents predictable and sustained support for affected populations. Phasing out of the Regional Refugee Response Plan for Iran and Pakistan also brings into sharp focus the need to rethink regional funding modalities.
Location: Remote, with virtual consultations of stakeholders across Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iran, and key donor capitals.
