Afghanistan has been identified as one of the five most climate-vulnerable countries in the world, according to recent assessments. This designation highlights the significant challenges the nation faces due to climate change, including extreme weather events, droughts, and food insecurity. The report emphasizes the urgent need for international support and local strategies to address these vulnerabilities.
