Afghanaid UK based International NGO

Afghanaid is a British humanitarian and development NGO founded in 1983, with its headquarters in Kabul. We operate in four provinces—Badakhshan, Samangan, Ghor, and Daykundi—and collaborate with partners in nine additional provinces: Herat, Faryab, Jawzjan, Sar-i-Pul, Balkh, Bamyan, Takhar, Khost, and Paktia. Over the past four decades, Afghanaid has developed thematic expertise and built the capacity of its staff to address the evolving needs of Afghanistan, guided by international best practices and opportunities for innovation. Our work is centered on four key pillars of sustainable development: providing basic services, enhancing sustainable livelihoods and food security, adapting to climate change and reducing disaster risk, and delivering emergency humanitarian assistance. We mainstream three guiding principles across all our activities to ensure their contribution to sustainable development: gender and inclusion, good governance and community development, and conflict mitigation and peacebuilding.
