A group of Internally displaced refugee children play in an open lot, surrounded by destroyed buildings in Kabul, Afghanistan. Afghanistan faces one of the world’s most acute internal displacement crises as it suffers protracted conflict, ongoing insecurity and natural hazards, such as droughts, floods, storms and earthquakes. Displacement has become a familiar survival strategy for many Afghans and, in some cases, an inevitable part of life for two generations. The situation is further complicated by widespread unemployment, poverty, landlessness and a lack of basic services.
