MoPH Establishes Joint Coordination Committee to Support Earthquake Victims in Kunar

The Ministry of Public Health, in cooperation with the Red Crescent Society, the Provincial Government, and relevant Aid Organizations, has established a joint coordination committee at the military base in Khas Kunar district to better manage, coordinate, and organize health services and other essential facilities for the earthquake-affected residents of Kunar.

The joint committee will oversee the systematic collection and equitable distribution of food aid at this base, as well as the establishment of a mobile health center and a temporary camp. Through this center and camp, earthquake-affected people will not only receive primary and emergency health services but will also be provided with a safe place to stay.

The purpose of establishing this committee is to provide timely, organized, and effective health services, food supplies, and shelter to earthquake-affected families, in order to promptly address their needs and improve their living conditions.
