Tearfund - Statement on Afghanistan

The unfolding conflict in Afghanistan is forcing thousands from their homes and raises immediate and ongoing fears for women and girls and vulnerable communities across the country.

Tearfund’s commitment to Afghanistan and our partners remains steadfast. For over four decades, Tearfund has stood alongside our local partners in Afghanistan in working towards a more just and compassionate world.

• Due to the unfolding and uncertain political crisis in Afghanistan, all of the work of our partners is currently on hold and we are in constant contact with partners as to the best way we can support them and the communities they serve at this difficult time.
• We maintain our long term commitment to our partners in Afghanistan. Tearfund is currently taking funds for our work in Afghanistan with the hope that these funds will be able to be delivered in response to the unfolding humanitarian needs, when circumstances allow.

Pray

During this very uncertain time in Afghanistan, please pray for Tearfund’s Afghan partners and the communities they have so faithfully served over many years. Please remember the very difficult decisions that they need to make. May they know God’s wisdom and be able to demonstrate love and compassion to those who are facing an uncertain future.

We will continue to keep you updated on the work of our partners in this very challenging situation.
