Acted supports more than 27 million people in 43 countries, meeting their needs in hard-to-reach areas, while pursuing a triple mandate as a humanitarian, environmental, and development actor.

Acted Afghanistan
Established in Afghanistan since 1993, Acted currently operates across 20 provinces; reaching over 6.6 million beneficiaries in 2023 through 31 projects delivering humanitarian assistance and basic services. Afghanistan faces a complex humanitarian and development crisis driven by years of conflict, political instability, economic instability, and natural disasters.
Over two-thirds of the population lives in poverty, with 22.9 million in need of emergency assistance; including 14.8 million people facing acute food security. Afghanistan is also highly vulnerable to climate change, with increasingly frequent droughts, floods, and erratic weather patterns devastating agricultural production and water resources.
Acted has built a legacy of long-term access and community acceptance in some of Afghanistan’s most peripheral and hard-to-reach areas; ensuring strong community-driven program. Acted’s work is guided by 3 pillars : improving access to basic services, providing livelihoods and economic opportunities, and promoting effective nature-based solutions for climate change adaptation and mitigation; while utilising an area-based approach to provide an integrated, multisectoral emergency response.
