World Vision Education in Emergencies and Protracted Crisis Framework 2025

Communities in the West Bank are enduring a deepening crisis. Daily life has become increasingly difficult due to a sharp rise in violence, severe restrictions on movement, and the sudden loss of access to work. In response to the worsening situation, World Vision undertook a broad listening exercise to better understand how families in the West Bank are coping and what support they need most. By engaging with parents, children, community leaders, and volunteers across a wide area, we aimed to capture the real-life impact of the crisis on people’s everyday lives.

Families across the West Bank are facing an unprecedented crisis marked by hunger, poverty, and fear, according to a new report released today by World Vision. The Unseen Crisis highlights the worsening situation for children, revealing an almost tenfold increase in the number of families reporting that a member had gone a full day without eating since 2022. Three out of four households surveyed are now unable to cover their most essential needs, and half of the children are regularly skipping meals.  

"They sit on pieces of cardboard, hot, thirsty, with nowhere to be." Thousands of Afghans are being pushed back from Iran every day.

In Ghor, Mark shows us what they're returning to: drought, hunger, and empty clinics that were meant to serve thousands - now abandoned after funding cuts. With millions of Afghans working in Iran to support their families, the scale of what’s coming is far greater than what we see today. Watch and witness the reality unfolding on the ground.
