    Abstract

    The Community-Based Protection Monitoring (CBPM) Mid-Year 2025 dataset captures protection risks, access barriers, and coping mechanisms among displaced and host communities in Afghanistan. Collected by UNHCR between February and June 2025 using household surveys, key informant interviews, and focus group discussions, the data cover refugees, returnees, undocumented returnees, IDPs, and host populations. Information is disaggregated by age, gender, and population group. Topics include assistance access, rights violations, safety, shelter, and basic needs.
