"...biggest tragedy in the making' In the making?

Hi all,
Neglect of its people is Afghanistan's biggest tragedy in the making. (BBC NEWS)

Could you please tell me what does 'in the making' mean or implie here? I have already looked up that phrase in a dictionary but I still don't get the meaning of it in this sentence. 'In the process of happening' was the one definition offered by the dictionary that seemed relavent.

Thank you.

Best wishes,

PBF
