Afghanistan Partners
Action Aid
ActionAid International Afghanistan is an internationally respected non-governmental development organization presently working in more than 40 countries across the world. It has been working with the poorest and marginalized communities of the world, to eradicate poverty and injustice through a right based perspective. ActionAid commenced work in Afghanistan in 2002, spurred by three compelling factors. First was the obvious need for humanitarian and development assistance. Second was the potential ramifications of events in Afghanistan for people, communities and politics in Central and South Asia and beyond. Third was the potential for furthering ActionAid's learning by engaging in a 'hot' and strategically important international venue at the cusp of Central and South Asia. ActionAid's mandate is to work alongside marginalised groups in an effort to eradicate poverty. The Afghanistan programme strategy focuses on four interwoven levels of involvement: grass roots community mobilisation activities; local level capacity building; policy analysis and influencing; networking and international advocacy.
