Hagar Cambodia provided emergency humanitarian packages to displaced people and women around childbirth.

The dangerous gap between school and survival.

In vulnerable areas of Kabul, girls aged 14 to 18 are reaching adulthood without the safe learning pathways they need. Many can no longer continue formal education, yet they are expected to prepare for adult life, avoid early marriage and contribute to family stability.

A training course alone is not enough. Girls may want to learn, but unsafe transport, uncertain family permission, distress, missed schooling and limited literacy can all stop progress before it starts.

The first community-based vocational training centre for vulnerable girls in Kabul opened on 30 April 2026.

Twenty-five girls aged 12 to 18 enrolled in a six-month handicrafts programme that combines vocational training with education support, health services, psychosocial counselling, awareness sessions, training materials and monthly financial assistance.

A second centre is planned for July to support another 25 girls. Together, the centres create a practical and protected pathway between school exclusion and adult livelihood.
