Afghanistan is a rapidly transforming country and continues to face significant challenges that require improvements in security, the economy, governance, and education. The past year saw a number of steps forward, including commitments from the international community at the Brussels Conference, positive developments in education, and declining levels of migration, but more support is needed to create a stable society. The Asia Foundation supports Afghan citizens through programs and partnerships focused on improving rule of law, access to and quality of education, women’s rights and empowerment, regional cooperation, and security.
