Abstract:
The return of the Taliban to power in 2021 has raised concerns about the resilience of the Afghan healthcare system and maternal and child health mortality and morbidity. Afghanistan is prone to natural hazards, further exacerbating vulnerable populations. Assessing disruptions in maternal and pediatric health services is essential to address natural hazards and their expected increase resulting from climate change.
