Targeting Assessments in Panjwayi and Kandahar City
In October 2024, HOPA conducted door-to-door targeting assessments in Panjwayi District and Kandahar City to identify vulnerable households for the General Food Distribution (IPC3) program. The assessment covered 1,167 households in Panjwayi and 8,488 households in Kandahar City, ensuring a transparent and inclusive selection process aligned with WFP guidelines. Digital data collection using tablets (MODA system) enhanced accuracy and efficiency, minimizing errors and expediting data processing.
Key recommendations from the assessment include enhanced community engagement, additional logistical support for hard-to-reach areas, strengthened data security measures, and expanded awareness initiatives through audio messaging and banners. These efforts aim to improve beneficiary understanding, cooperation, and trust in the selection process.
HOPA remains committed to ensuring fair, effective, and needs-based food assistance, strengthening resilience among the most vulnerable communities in Afghanistan.
