18 Both mechanisms are discussed below. [Figure 11] depicts the ratio of trust funds compared to bilateral support in 2011. SUPPORT THROUGH TRUST FUNDS Designed to mobilize additional on-budget resources, the prime focus of the trust funds mechanism (TF), namely the Afghanistan Reconstruction Trust Fund (ARTF) and the Law and Order Trust Fund for Afghanistan (LOTFA), was to harmonize support for the reconstruction effort. Since early 2002, a large number of donors have contributed to the trust funds making them the largest financier of the government national budget. While the ARTF and LOTFA still continue to support government priorities, the Afghan government entered into a new partnership with the international community in 2010 to establish the Afghanistan Peace and Reintegration Trust Fund (APRP) in order to help back up the peace process initiated by the government in 2010. The Afghanistan Infrastructure Trust Fund (AITF) is also a new initiative that was created in December 2010. In general, the entire amount of External Assistance contributed through TFs from 2002 reaches USD 7.5 billion by end 2011.
