N2 - The grim situation facing Afghans living in Afghanistan, Iran and Pakistan as well as further afield in other countries, including Turkey, Indonesia, Uzbekistan and elsewhere may be as a direct result of recent (geo)political events, including the withdrawal of coalition forces in August 2021, the swift fall of the Afghan government and the equally swift Taliban takeover. However, the longer term human (in)security, development, economic and demographic contexts underpin decades of displacement and migration of Afghans within the immediate region of West Asia as well as further afield to countries, such as Germany, the United States, Australia, Sweden, the Netherlands and Canada.
