Globally, over 2 billion people suffer from micronutrient deficiencies, exacerbating mortality from preventable diseases. Micronutrient deficiencies in Afghanistan present a severe public health crisis, as highlighted by the last available data (National Nutrition Survey 2013). Over 40% of women and children suffer from anemia, while 50% of children under five are vitamin A deficient, which is classified as a severe problem by WHO. Zinc and iodine deficiencies are also prevalent, and vitamin D deficiency affects nearly all women (95.5%) and children (81%). Compounding this, knowledge about micronutrients is alarmingly low, with only 38.7% of Afghans aware of vitamins, and 69.8% of mothers uninformed about vitamin A. Despite iodized salt awareness (64.2%), only 43.6% of households use adequately iodized salt, and just 38.1% consume fortified foods.
UNICEF leads efforts to combat this, but scaling up interventions—like supplementation and community-based programs—requires strengthened coordination, capacity building, and nationwide implementation.

This rapid expansion underscores the critical need for national-level expertise to ensure effective program reporting, monitoring, and quality assurance.
