Meet the team

Afghanaid employs around 400 staff, the vast majority of whom are Afghan and more than a third of whom are women. We're headquartered in Kabul with provincial offices in Samangan, Badahkshan, Takhar, Ghor, Herat, Nangarhar and Logar. We also have a small London office which supports our fundraising, communications and programme design. This structure enables Afghanaid to use its resources in the most efficient and sustainable way and have the greatest possible impact in the vulnerable communities we work with.

We couldn't do the work we do without you, which is why we value your trust so highly.

Women’s Empowerment and Women’s Rights

In addition to ensuring that gender equality underpins all of the work we do, we also deliver stand-alone projects which specifically target women’s economic empowerment and gender rights.

Basic Services

We deliver basic services such as community infrastructure, clean water and sanitation and education; essential to long-term development and breaking the cycle of poverty.

The Elimination of Violence against Women

Although the issue of gender rights has made significant legislative progress in Afghanistan over the last decade, the country continues to be one of the most difficult places in the world to be a woman. We have been working to change this.

Livelihoods

Creating and strengthening livelihoods is key to achieving Afghanaid’s mission of providing Afghans with the skills, tools, and knowledge to help themselves, their families, and their communities.
