Afghanistan Shelter and NFI Cluster Strategy 2025-2026

The Afghanistan Shelter and NFI Cluster Strategy 2025-2026 aims to provide life-saving shelter, essential non-food items (NFI), and transitional housing for vulnerable communities. Developed with over 66 partners, it aligns with key humanitarian frameworks to address protracted displacement, natural disasters, economic hardship, and gender-based shelter vulnerabilities.

Key Priorities:

• Emergency Response: Rapid shelter and NFI support for crisis-affected populations.

• Transitional Housing: Helping displaced families rebuild and secure sustainable living conditions.

• Protection & Inclusion: Ensuring safe, dignified housing for women, children, and other at-risk groups.

The strategy promotes climate-resilient solutions, cash-based assistance, and stronger coordination to enhance impact and sustainability. Urgent funding and policy support are needed to meet Afghanistan’s growing shelter needs.
