HI has long supported physical rehabilitation centres in several provinces. These centres provide essential services, including physical and functional rehabilitation, mental health and psychosocial support, the provision of prostheses and orthoses, and mobility aids (e.g., wheelchairs and crutches). They also offer follow-up care, repair of assistive products, and referral services.
HI currently runs several livelihood projects in the provinces of Kunduz, Bamyan, Kunar, and Nangarhar. These projects support vulnerable groups such as persons with disabilities, internally displaced people, female-headed households, and households that lost their economic activity in the August 2025 earthquake. On the ground, HI helps beneficiaries rebuild their economic independence through several types of support: vocational training, enabling people to learn practical skills; distribution of livelihood kits, including tools and equipment needed to start small businesses; and individual coaching and follow-up, helping beneficiaries develop sustainable economic activities.
HI also works with humanitarian organizations to make NGO programmes more inclusive and accessible by providing awareness sessions on disability inclusion, as well as training and capacity-building for humanitarian staff.
HI conducts explosive ordnance risk education activities in Kunduz and Herat provinces. These sessions take place in villages, schools, and agricultural areas. The programme focuses on populations most at risk, including farmers working in contaminated fields, schoolchildren, scrap metal collectors, returnees from Iran and Pakistan, and other vulnerable groups.
