Resumen

Descripción

On 22 June 2022, a 5.9 earthquake struck Afghanistan's central region. The provinces of Khost and Paktika were the most affected. The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) established Data in Emergencies Impact (DIEM-Impact) to provide a granular and rapid understanding of the impact of large-scale hazards on agriculture and agricultural livelihoods using a variety of assessment methodologies, including primary and secondary information, remote sensing technologies, and FAO’s damage and loss methodology. DIEM-Impact presents a regularly updated and accessible state of food insecurity in fragile environments and helps underpin FAO's programming based on evidence. In July and August 2022, DIEM-Impact conducted an impact assessment to evaluate the effects of the earthquake on agricultural livelihoods and food security across three districts in the affected provinces. This report presents the results of the assessment.
