The United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF) says that the European Union is contributing 13 million euros to treat malnutrition and educate children in Afghanistan.

According to Amac News: This union has said by publishing a newsletter that this help is provided by "civil protection operations and humanitarian aid" of this institution.
According to this fund, more than 78 thousand people in Afghanistan will benefit from this aid.
The United Nations Children's Fund added that the aid will provide 62,000 cartons of ready-to-eat medical food and train 1,600 health workers to treat acute and severe malnutrition among children under the age of five.
This organization has also said that with this help, it will improve the quality of learning in 275 community-based classrooms so that 9,500 children, 61% of whom are girls, will be able to access primary education.
The Children's Protection Fund has said that its assistance to community-based educational institutions will include the training of teachers and administrators and the provision of supplies.
In this regard, François Goemans, head of the EU humanitarian aid department in Afghanistan, said that the rate of malnutrition in Afghanistan, especially among children, shows that the country is facing a critical situation.
While welcoming the European Union's assistance, Tajuddin Oywale, the representative of UNICEF in Afghanistan, said that with this assistance, children in need will have access to fortified foods and education.
According to UNICEF, this aid will provide malnutrition treatment services for about 69,000 children in 27 provinces of Afghanistan and community-based education services for 9,500 children and adolescents in four provinces in a two-year period.
According to the statistics provided by UNICEF, this year in Afghanistan 2.9 million children will face acute malnutrition.
The organization added that of these, 850,000 people need treatment for severe acute malnutrition, which is a life-threatening condition.
It should be noted that the United Nations Children's Fund has also described the education situation in Afghanistan as critical and has said that according to a survey in 2023, more than half of the children will not go to primary schools.
