Central Asia - Complex Emergency

Disaster Declared: 10/04/2001

Brief Description: Two decades of war in Afghanistan, compounded by a regional drought, have impoverished the country and resulted in an extended humanitarian crisis. The Coalition-led military campaign against al Qaeda and Taliban forces began on October 7, 2001, and by December 2001, the Taliban regime had collapsed. The new Afghan Interim Authority (AIA) was sworn in on December 22, 2001, increasing humanitarian access to the country and beginning the process of reconstruction. Approximately 2.5 million people have been displaced by the regional crisis in Central Asia. Since 1990, the USG has provided more than $845 million to assist vulnerable populations in the Central Asia Region.
