Program
This program would provide year-round access
to markets, fundamental for better farming
and rural growth. This program aims to promote
equitable economic growth by ensuring
year-round access to basic facilities in rural areas
all over the country.
This program builds upon existing work to increase
rural growth potential. It will expand
Community Development Councils to cover
all of Afghanistan’s villages, and it will provide
additional resources to build simple village infrastructure.
This program will also strengthen
capacity through a clustering of villages for better
efficiency and stronger linkages to formal
government institutions, as well as working at
the district level for local development. The
overall goal of this program is to establish a
productive, participatory partnership between
the government and the people.
The Human Resources Development Cluster
This program is to diminish the skills gap by
providing Afghan youth and adults technical
and vocational education which is high quality,
market-relevant, demand-driven and certified.
For those who have been left out of the formal
educational system, this program provides literacy
training in combination with the development
of marketable skills. The objective of
the program is to effectively prepare Afghan
nationals for the labor market.
This program improves access to quality basic
education, with a particular focus on girls. It
aims to maximize school attendance, improve
the qualifications of teachers, and strengthen
the management capacity of the Ministry of
Education.
This program emphasizes to increase access
to higher education, especially in fields that
directly contribute to economic growth in partnership
with the private sector. Improving the
quality of higher education through faculty and
staff development and expanding the number
of faculty members constitute the goal of this
program.
