<h2>Humanitarian overview</h2> <p>For the past 40 years, Iran has hosted one of the largest and most protracted refugee crises in the world. Two years after the political changes in Afghanistan, at least 4.5 million Afghans reside in Iran, making it the largest refugee hosting country worldwide. This number comprises 750,000 Amayesh cardholders (long-term registered refugees), 267,000 visa holders (long-term Afghan residents in Iran), 360,000 with a residence permit, 2.6 million people who joined a 2022 government-led registration exercise, and a further large number of undocumented persons.</p> <p>Iran’s inclusive policies grant access for all Afghans to primary health care, and Afghan children can study in Iranian public schools. Amayesh and visa holders are allowed to work in certain job categories. Despite the inclusive policies and support from the international community, Afghans still face challenges finding and retaining a stable income. This affects their ability to secure housing and keep their children in school, and could adversely impact their ability to renew their documentation and legal status on time.</p> <p>The re-imposition of US sanctions on Iran in 2018 and the Covid-19 pandemic have further pressured Iran’s economy, increasing the challenges faced by all Afghans in Iran.</p> <p>Iran is also prone to natural disasters such as earthquakes and floods, which can lead to displacement and destruction.</p> <p> </p></div></div> <div><div><div class="country-effort-block block-padding country-effort-block--article-width block-width--default"> <ul class="country-efforts"> <li class="country-effort"> <div class="country-effort-content"> <span class="country-effort__icon" data-svg="education"></span> <div class="effort-number">31,211</div> <div class="effort-text">people benefited from our education programme in 2023</div> </div> </li> <li class="country-effort"> <div class="country-effort-content"> <span class="country-effort__icon" data-svg="food-security"></span> <div class="effort-number">7,684</div> <div class="effort-text">people benefited from our food security programme</div> </div> </li> <li class="country-effort"> <div class="country-effort-content"> <span class="country-effort__icon" data-svg="shelter"></span> <div class="effort-number">17,838</div> <div class="effort-text">people benefited from our shelter programme</div> </div> </li> <li class="country-effort"> <div class="country-effort-content"> <span class="country-effort__icon" data-svg="legal-help"></span> <div class="effort-number">7,673</div> <div class="effort-text">people benefited from our ICLA programme</div> </div> </li> <li class="country-effort"> <div class="country-effort-content"> <span class="country-effort__icon" data-svg="clean-water"></span> <div class="effort-number">26,047</div> <div class="effort-text">people benefited from our WASH programme</div> </div> </li> <li class="country-effort "> <div class="country-effort-content"> <span class="country-effort__icon" data-svg="effort-other"></span> <div class="effort-number">14,691</div> <div class="effort-text">people benefited from other NRC activities</div> </div> </li> </ul> </div></div><div> <div class="page-wrapper htmlblock block-padding block-width--default show--all show--all" > <div class="html richtext"> <p> </p> <h2>NRC's operation</h2> <p>NRC has been assisting displaced Afghans in Iran as well as their Iranian host communities since 2012.

On the way, Hind and her sister lost their family in the crowd. 

“I lost them and I was afraid that they were captured or killed,” says Hind's father, Ahmed.

Luckily after 37km in Tal Tamr, Hind and her sister found their family again and continued their trip to Iraq together. Now she lives in Bardarash Camp and she has already registered to start going to NRC's school.
