Goals of Sustainable development of Afghanistan

Preface

The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) have emerged at a critical juncture in modern history, as the humanitarian world is faced with numerous challenges. Poverty and hunger, unemployment and inequality, violence and injustice, insecurity and instability are among the biggest challenges in today’s world. Additionally, weak governance and widespread corruption, lack of transparency and accountability, disproportionate population and economic growth, and lack of access to sustainable energy and clean drinking water are sources of concern for the international community, and especially for Afghanistan. The SDG 2015-2030 agenda is a comprehensive programme that addresses economic, social, security and environmental factors; it was developed and unanimously agreed upon by the United Nations’ (UN) member countries. The programme is regularly monitored using a framework comprised of 17 development goals, 169 targets and 232 strategic indicators. As both a member of the international community, as well as a less developed and poor country, Afghanistan must align its development programmes with the SDGs. To respond to the needs of current and future generations, the country must study, identify and invest in income sources. We will achieve the SDGs when all members of society identify their needs and play an active role alongside the government to achieve these goals. By using realistic approaches, and by drawing on all available resources, we will incorporate the SDGs into the country's economic and social agendas, and will implement strategic action plans to achieve national targets. Through our tireless efforts, we will provide a strong foundation for achieving Afghanistan’s SDGs, balancing development and growth in order to accelerate economic development. I would like to thank my colleagues from the Ministry of Economy, the Secretary Executive Committee on SDGs, the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) and all other organizations that contributed to the development of this document.

Dr. Mustafa Mastoor Minister of Economy.

Goals of Sustainable development of Afghanistan

Prelude

In September 2015, as the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) concluded, 193 world leaders gathered at United Nations (UN) headquarters to commit themselves to a new development agenda: "We, the Heads of State and Governments and High Representatives, meeting at the United Nations Headquarters in New York from 25 to 27 September 2015 as the Organization celebrates its seventieth anniversary, have decided today on new global Sustainable Development Goals. On behalf of the people we serve, we have adopted a historic decision on a comprehensive, far-reaching and people-centered set of universal and transformative Goals and targets. We commit ourselves to working tirelessly for the full implementation of this Agenda by 2030. We are committed to achieving sustainable development in its three dimensions – economic, social and environmental – in a balanced way and integrated manner.” The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are a set of 17 developmental goals, 169 targets and 232 strategic indicators. The goals address important global issues, such as poverty, hunger, equality, peace, health and sustainability. In 2016, Afghanistan began nationalizing the SDGs. The High Council of Ministers designated the Ministry of Economy to lead this effort by developing technical guidelines, coordinating the nationalization process, managing the monitoring and reporting of SDGs, holding training programs for a diverse set of stakeholders representing civil society, academia, the private sector and international organizations, and mobilizing resources for funding SDGs. The Ministry of Economy began nationalizing the SDGs by holding meetings and advisory seminars with governmental entities, the private sector, civil society, non-governmental organizations, developmental partners, academic institutions and people. Next, the Ministry developed working structures and executive mechanisms to lead the nationalization process and alignment of the Afghanistan Sustainable Development Goals (A-SDGs), and aligned these to governmental development programmes. This document, comprised of three sections, presents the alignment framework of the A- SDGs. The first section aligns the A-SDGs with governmental programmes and projects, the second section introduces the executive committee working group, and the third section describes the mechanisms and present the A-SDG alignment tables. In addition, the Ministry of Economy also developed a national SDGs document, which presents national goals, targets and indicators. Together, these two documents ensure that all programmes and developmental projects, regardless of whether they are led by government or international partners, are designed and implemented with national goals and targets in mind. Finally, a separate document was developed that describes the alignment process.

SDGs Alignment with Government Programmes and Projects An important step towards implementation of the SDGs targets and indicators is alignment and coordination with the government’s developmental programmes and projects. Since the beginning of 2016, the Ministry of Economy has worked closely with budgetary units to align and nationalize the SDG targets and indicators. In mid-2017, the SDG Executive Committee formed under the Chief Executive Office of the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan to strengthen, politically support and coordinate the nationalization and implementation of SDGs. The SDGs Executive Committee is comprised of four working groups, each of which address one of the following topics: Security and Governance; Agriculture and Rural Development; Health, Education, Environment and Social Protection; and Infrastructure and Economy. The SDG Executive Committee working groups held regular meetings, workshops and advisory conferences on the nationalization of the SDG targets and indicators in order to finalize the national targets and indicators. These targets and indicators, along with the SDG alignment framework, were presented and endorsed by the Council of Ministers on 17 September 2018. The mechanism for alignment and coordination of the A-SDGs covers all aspects of implementation, such as targets, indicators and baselines; roles and responsibilities, planned activities and budgets for programmes and projects. Sound planning plays a critical role in achieving national targets. The planning process ensures that programmes, projects and activities are implemented effectively, and that the planned activities and proposed budget are properly aligned to the SDGs. Similarly, the coordination mechanism identifies priority areas and severely vulnerable areas to ensure that they receive additional attention and investment in order to meet targets. The following table is an example of SDG alignment and coordination with governmental developmental programmes and projects.

Alignment Framework for SDGs of Afghanistan

Security Sector

Goals and Vision of the Security Sector Afghanistan’s National Peace and Development Framework (ANPDF) outlines the vision for peace and development for the next five years from 2016 to 2021. The document addresses developmental and economic issues, and emphasizes the need to improve the capacity of the country’s armed forces and to counter armed opposition. Afghanistan also adopted the SDGs as a defined strategy for achieving its national targets and indicators. Peace and security is a critical issue in Afghanistan, and both the ANPDF as well as the SDGs address this area. After three decades of war, Afghanistan is now relatively peaceful. With the assistance of the international community, the country is striving to achieve peace and improve living conditions for its citizens. Three SDGs (Goals 3, 11, and 16), 5 targets and 7 indicators are directly or indirectly related to security. In 2010, the country established a High Peace Council, which is working to end the current crisis. Achieving financial self-sufficiency and decreasing foreign aid in the security sector are major objectives of the government. The security sector in Afghanistan includes six agencies: Ministries of Defense, Internal Affairs, Foreign Affairs, NDS, President Protective Directorate and National Peace Council. In 2015 , this sector had an allocated budget of US$2.2 billion, which constitutes 38 percent of the budget.

Expected Outcomes of the Security Sector by 2030 Afghanistan’s SDGs in the security sector include 5 targets and 7 indicators. The sector focuses on issues such as fighting crime, eradicating violence against women, and reducing the number of deaths caused by insecurity or driving accidents. Additional goals, such as promoting peaceful communities for sustainable development, increasing security and improving public welfare are also important goals for the sector. Because of the history of insecurity and violence, Afghanistan must actively implement programmes in order to become a sustainable and developed society. By 2020, Afghanistan expects to:  Increase the finding and seizure of illegal light arms to 90 percent, up from 80 percent in 2016  Reduce the number of human trafficking victims from 0.98 percent to 0.94 percent  Decrease the number of prisoners being held in detention without being sentenced from 9 percent to 7 percent  Decrease the value of illegal money imported or exported from the country from $683 million to $5 million  Reduce the number of sexual violence victims from 1,543 to 1,000  Reduce the number of fatalities due to traffic accidents from 5.2 percent to 0.35 percent

Goals and Targets of the Security Sector by 2020

The security sector addresses three goals, which include Goal 16 - promote peaceful and inclusive societies for sustainable development, provide access to justice for all and build effective, accountable and inclusive institutions at all levels; Goal 3 - ensure healthy lives and promote well- being for all at all ages; Goal 11 - make cities and human settlements inclusive, safe, resilient and sustainable.

The SDG alignment framework for the security sector has 5 targets and 7 indicators. Furthermore, the sector’s strategic plan includes 8 policies and 8 programmes/projects to help achieve these goals.

The total budget for programmes and projects of the security sector is 1.62 billion AFN and is expected to be 1.95 billion AFN by the year 2020.

The alignment framework for the security sector is shown below.

Governance Sector

Goals and Vision of the Governance Sector Afghanistan must implement effective governance plans, fight corruption, establish effective institutions, reform the legal system and establish a culture of accountability in order to run a successful government. By ensuring a legitimate and sustainable government, Afghanistan will be better positioned for strengthening its peace talks, creating national consensus and establishing lasting peace and stability in the country. The ANPDF places a focus on the following programmes to improve and reform governance, rule of law and human rights. A: Public Sector Reforms: Afghanistan has been institutionalizing public sector reforms since the National Unity Government was established. Two programmes, the Civil Service Reforms Programme and the Public Administration Reforms Programme, are helping improve the quality of high-level officers. In order to meet the country's developmental needs and to provide equal opportunities for women and men, Afghanistan must overcome its history of corruption and an overly powerful elite, as these factors reduce institutional capacity. The government’s priorities include civil services reforms; improvement of service delivery through enhanced use of performance-based management practices; creation, maintenance, and strengthening of professionalization programmes; and increased transparency and accountability. B: Eliminating Corruption: The government of Afghanistan is committed to eradicating corruption in the country. The Anti-Corruption Programme implements major reforms in the government’s security, management, economic and legal departments. Some reforms that have already started include: reforms to the National Procurement Authority, which accounts for 21 percent of all expenditures; creation of a National High Council for Rule of Law and Anti- Corruption; development of anti-corruption strategies for multiple ministries, such as the Ministry of Mines and Petroleum, the Ministry of Commerce and Industry, the Ministry of Telecommunications and Information Technology and the Ministry of Transport; support to the Justice and Judiciary Center for investigation and prosecution of major corruption cases; introduction of an exam process for all attorneys and judges; replacement of judges in 22 of the country’s provinces; and expansion of the use of electronic systems for procurement and payments. C: Strengthening Local Governance: The government’s efforts to strengthen and support local governance include: strengthening communications in all levels of government, from the local to national levels; improving support, coordination and communication in budgeting, planning, and implementation; providing capacity building for municipalities to generate more revenue and improve service delivery; expanding government presence in districts; and improving the capacity of governors and district governors. The national SDG framework for the security sector includes one goal (Goal 16), 6 targets and 6 indicators.

Expected Outcomes of the Governance Sector by 2030 The National SDGs in the governance sector include six targets and six indicators. The governance sector addresses issues such as effective and accountable institutions, access to inclusive and equal justice, rule of law and corruption and bribery .

Agriculture and Rural Development Sector

Goals and Vision of the Agriculture and Rural Development Sector The vision for the Agriculture and Rural Development sector is to improve the social, economic, and political welfare of rural communities, especially poor and vulnerable groups, to ensure food security, to eliminate hunger and to promote a balanced economy in the country . The sector aims to raise people's living standards in villages, providing a healthy and poppy-free environment through the coordination and implementation of economic and social development plans from multiple ministries and agencies, including the Ministries of Agriculture, Irrigation and Livestock, Counter Narcotics, Rural Rehabilitation and Development, National Environmental Protection Agency and Independent Land Administration Authority (ARAZI). Afghanistan is 652,000 square kilometers, of which 12 percent is cultivated land, 3 percent is forest, 46 percent is permanent pasture and 39 percent is mountain. Agriculture is the backbone of the country's economy and is the main source of domestic production, income, employment and exports. In the year 2016, agriculture comprised 23 percent of Gross Domestic Product (GDP), 44 percent of employment, and 57 percent of exports. There are 1.8 million hectares of arable irrigated land and 215 thousand hectares of gardens. Additionally, there are 3.5 million tonnes of wheat produced, and wheat storage capacity for 253 thousand tonnes. In the first quarter of 2018, there were $153 million worth of agricultural exports, and $757 million worth of agricultural imports. Afghanistan faces drought and climate change; scarcity of water and irrigation infrastructure; non-mechanical agriculture and seeds; market and marketing problems; poor agricultural research and promotion; changing of agricultural lands into residential areas; and the production of 9,000 metric tonnes of poppy and an increase of 3.6 million drug users. The sector’s biggest challenges are traditional agricultural value addition methods, an unstable value chain, after-harvest waste, lack of rural roads, lack and scarcity of rural handicrafts, a weak rural economy, lack of access to drinking water, and forceful land acquisition by powerful individuals. Despite these challenges, there are many opportunities for development of the sector, which include: 75 billion cubic meters of potential water resources per year, 8 million hectares of arable and non-arable land, a suitable climate for plant cultivation in

greenhouses, an average of 300 sunny days per year and 9 hours of sun per day, as well as investments from development partners, donors, and the private sector. The Afghan National Peace and Development Framework document includes two National Priority Programs, the Citizen’s Charter and Comprehensive Agricultural Development, as well as 15 SDG indicators. Emphasis is placed on increasing agricultural production, improving the value chain of agricultural products and sustainable management of natural resources. For Afghanistan to achieve economic growth, poverty reduction, improved food security, and sustainable employment and income, the country must pursue its agriculture and rural development SDG targets and indicators, as well as implement its priority programs. Expected Outcomes of the Agriculture and Rural Development Sector by 2030 The A-SDGs in the Agriculture and Rural Development sector include 12 targets and 15 indicators. These address issues such as hunger, sustainable agriculture and farmers' access to resources. The following results are expected by 2020: • Increase agriculture areas being used in a productive and sustainable way from 2.66 million to 2.75 million hectares • Increase the average yield of wheat and rice from 2.45 million to 2.71 million hectares • Decrease the percentage of waste in wheat production from 15 percent to 13.5 percent, and in rice production from 7 percent to 6.2 percent • Increase the average income of small food producers from $800 to $937 • Increase the number of registered and protected arable crops and fruits from 64 types of plants to 74 types of plants, and from 935 types of fruit to 950 types of fruit • Increase the proportion of forestland in the country from 2.8 percent to 3.2 percent • Increase the percentage of sustainable forest management from 4.4 percent to 10 percent • Increase the percentage of rural people living less than two 2 kilometers from a road from 52 percent to 53.5 percent • Decrease the percentage of people defecating outdoors from 14 percent to 11 percent • Increase the percentage of people using safely managed drinking water services from 63 percent to 71 percent • Increase the percentage of people using safely managed sanitation services from 43 percent to 55 percent • Increase the percentage of people with access to hand-washing with soap and water from 74 percent to 80 percent

Alignment Framework for SDGs of Afghanistan

• Food insecurity is currently at 44.6 percent; the target for this indicator will be determined at a later date The implementation of the SDGs will result in increased agricultural production, improved export of agricultural products, a strengthened value chain, rural economic growth, and food security. Goals and Targets of the Agriculture and Rural Development Sector by 2020 Afghanistan has multiple SDGs on agriculture and rural development, which include: Goal 2 - end hunger, achieve food security and improved nutrition and promote sustainable agriculture; Goal 6 - ensure availability and sustainable management of water and sanitation for all; Goal 9 - build resilient infrastructure, promote inclusive and sustainable industrialization and foster innovation; Goal 12 - ensure sustainable consumption and production patterns; and Goal 15 - protect, restore and promote sustainable use of terrestrial ecosystems, sustainably manage forests, combat desertification, and halt and reverse land degradation and halt biodiversity loss. In addition, there are 12 targets and 15 indicators that focus on agriculture and rural development. There are 47 agriculture and rural development programmes and projects, with a budget 6.2 billion AFN. There are about 29 policies and strategies in this sector, and an additional 49 new activities are planned. 22.3 billion AFN is needed by 2020. The SDG alignment framework for Agriculture and Rural Development is presented below.

Health Sector

Goals and Vision of the Health Sector The vision for the health and nutrition sector is to improve the physical and psychological health of all Afghans. The overall goal of this sector is to work effectively with communities and development partners to improve the health and nutrition of the Afghan people, with a specific focus on women and children and in vulnerable areas. The Afghan Ministry of Public Health is the only government entity responsible for ensuring good health for the citizens of Afghanistan, though a number of other ministries and government institutions also carry out similar activities. These activitities can also directly or indirectly impact the state of health in the country. Development partners, non- governmental organizations and NGOs, professional associations, regulatory and watchdog bodies, as well as the private sector are also key partners in this sector. Afghanistan's health sector has made significant progress in improving the health of people across the country, benefiting from financial and technical support from donors and development partners. These achievements have led to increased access to health care and an expanded area of coverage for health services; improvement in the quality of health services; and strengthened institutional management. Key achievements in the sector have been reached through the strategic, institutional and operational effectiveness of the new and improved health system. The Afghan government is committed to ensuring rapid implementation of quality health services for all Afghans, with cooperation from communities and other development partners. The government places a specific focus on women and children, as well as areas lacking adequate health services. The 2015-2020 National Health Policy is one of the government’s major plans for achieving Afghanistan's SDGs. The five year strategy of the Ministry of Public Health (MoPH ) both addresses the health system’s challenges, as well as strengthens the provision of primary, secondary and third- party health services. The six strategic areas in the strategy cover all objectives of the SDG targets and indicators.

Expected Outcomes of the Health Sector by 2030 The health sector in Afghanistan has 2 goals, 11 targets and 20 indicators, which focus on the health of citizens and the improvement of public welfare for all age groups. This sector focuses on issues such as reducing child malnutrition; reducing child mortality, especially among children and babies below the age of 5; reducing maternal mortality; controlling diseases in the country, especially tuberculosis, malaria, AIDS, and non-communicable or non-transmitted diseases, such as cardiovascular diseases and cancer; reducing tobacco and drug use among the youth; increasing treatment centers for drug users; increasing the number of health workers; and increasing the access to standardized, quality and fair health services. The health sector is expected to reach the following milestones by 2020:

Alignment Framework for SDGs of Afghanistan

 Increase the percentage of the population with access to basic, fair and quality health services from 88 percent to 90 percent (access is defined as individuals living under 10 km, or less than a two-hour walk, from health services)  Decrease the prevalence of chronic malnutrition in children under 5 years old from 40.9 percent in 2013 to 36.5 percent in 2020  Decrease the prevalence of acute malnutrition in children under 5 years old from 9.5 percent in 2013 to 8 percent in 2020  Reduce the maternal mortality ratio from 661 to 450 per 100,000 live births  Increase the proportion of births attended by skilled health personnel from 51 percent to 60 percent  Decrease the mortality rate for children under 5 years old from 55 to 46 per 1,000 children, and for infants from 36 to 30 per 1,000 births  Decrease the number of tuberculosis cases per year from 189 to 142 cases per 100,000 people  Decrease the number of malaria cases per year from 11 to 8 cases per 1,000 people  Decrease the mortality rate among people aged 30-70 with cardiovascular disease, cancer, diabetes, or chronic respiratory diseases from 31 percent to 27 percent  Increase the proportion of women of reproductive age (aged 15-49 years old) satisfying their family planning needs using modern methods from 20 percent to 30 percent  Decrease the pregnancy rate among teenagers (women aged 13-19 years old) from 12 percent to 9.9 percent  Increase the percentage of people with sustainable access to medicines and vaccines from 60 percent to 82 percent  Increase the number and generalization of health workers per 1,000 people) from 1.05 persons to 1.09 persons  Increase the percentage of the government budget for the health sector from 5 percent to 5.5 percent By reaching the above indicators, we will be one step closer to the implementation and achievement of the SDGs. Goals and Targets of the Health Sector by 2020 There are two SDGs for the health sector: Goal 3 - ensure healthy lives and promote wellbeing for all people at all ages; and Goal 2 - End hunger, achieve food security and improved nutrition and promote sustainable agriculture. There are also 11 targets and 20 indicators. Afghanistan is implementing 42 programmes or projects, with a total budget of 65 billion AFN to achieve these targets and indicators.

Finally, there are about 16 policies and strategies and an additional 41 new activities proposed for the health sector. To implement these proposed activities will require 26.3 billion AFN.

Education Sector

Goals and Vision of the Education Sector

The vision for Afghanistan’s education sector is that all Afghans will have equal access to a quality education, free of discrimination based on gender, ethnicity, socio-economic status, or religion. Not only does education enhance the knowledge and work capacity of individuals, it also plays a vital and central role in ensuring stability and good leadership, reducing poverty and helping the community prosper. Improving the education, knowledge, and work skills of individuals is critical to Afghanistan’s economic growth. Mass media plays a prominent role in the industrial world, affecting scientific, cultural, political, economic and social aspects of life in many ways. Media and publications can help lead to innovative changes and to a progressive, integrated and non-violent society. Media inform the public about the political, economic and social programs at the national and international levels. The SDGs assert that all children, regardless of gender, ethnicity, socioeconomic status, or religion, should have equal access to quality education and professional training. Long term economic growth for Afghanistan depends upon the availability of a healthy workforce; to develop a healthy workforce, children must have equal access to a high- quality education where they receive the skills and knowledge needed to enter the workforce. The education sector consists of six ministries and departments: Ministry of Education; Ministry of Higher Education; Ministry of Information and Culture; Department of the Academy of Sciences; General Directorate of Physical Education; and the General Directorate of Radio Television.

Expected Results of the Education Sector by 2030 Issues in education must consider a wide range of factors, including cultural, economic, health and security challenges. Afghanistan must implement practical strategies and programmes for improving the quality of education by providing adequate facilities for education and training, as well as by recruiting experienced teachers and professors. Adequate educational facilities should be established and professional trainings in schools and universities should be standardized in order to: provide and expand the individual and collective freedom of citizens; enhance the capacity of young people; and

Social Security Sector

Goals and Vision of the Social Security Sector The strategic vision for the social security sector is to reduce poverty and inequality; create job opportunities; address the needs of poor communities, vulnerable people, refugees, returnees and internally displaced persons; combat natural disasters; improve gender equality; and accelerate social integration for minorities and persons with disabilities. Implementing SDG targets and indicators in the Social Security sector will yield numerous benefits, including: the status of women will improve in academic, economic, political and social activities; the participation of women in political and managerial positions will increase; violence and discrimination against women will disappear; effective legal frameworks will be created and implemented; and finally, the majority of the poor and vulnerable will be covered by social security systems. Additionally, the SDG targets will help strengthen measures that protect against severe climate related disasters, as well as those related to economic and social damages. Finally, employment opportunity strategies will help to ensure that Afghans have access to appropriate jobs locally, thereby deterring both internal and external migration. The Social Security Sector includes six ministries and departments: the Ministry of Refugees and Repatriates, the Ministry of Border and Tribal Affairs, the Counter Narcotics Ministry, the Independent Directorate of Nomads/Kuchi Affairs, the Ministry of Women's Affairs and the Ministry of Labor and Social Affairs.

Expected Results of the Social Security Sector by 2030 By implementing the A-SDGs in the Social Security sector, the status of women in Afghanistan will improve in academic, economic, political and social activities; women's participation in political and managerial positions will increase; violence and discrimination against women will disappear; effective legal frameworks will be established and implemented, and the majority of poor and vulnerable people will be covered by social security systems. Additionally, the SDG targets will help strengthen measures that protect against severe climate related disasters, as well as those related to economic and social damages. Finally, employment opportunity strategies will help to ensure that Afghans have access to appropriate jobs in their localities, removing the need for internal and external migration. The Social Security sector is expected to achieve the following goals by 2020:

Infrastructure and Natural Resources Sector

Goals and Vision of the Infrastructure and Natural Resources Sectors

The Infrastructure and Natural Resources sector can help lead to balanced and sustainable economic development in Afghanistan. Development of sustainable and lasting infrastructure is a priority for the country. Investment in economic infrastructure will lead to increased production and economic growth by increasing productivity factors, expanding the market, balancing supply and demand, creating better competitive conditions, and improving welfare.

The infrastructure sector is a priority in two of the country’s strategic documents, the ANPDF and the A-SDGs, because of the important role infrastructure plays in economic growth and development. This sector affects many areas, including roads, land and air transport, energy and water, telecommunications, mines and natural resources, and urban development.

Afghanistan has plans for multiple infrastructure development projects, such as increasing domestic electricity production, controlling all mines and natural resources, establishing new rail networks to Iran and Turkmenistan, creating 1,000 water dams for irrigation purposes, restoring roads to connect districts to provincial centers, and more.

Responsible ministries and departments include: the budget unit, the Ministry of Urban Affairs, the Ministry of Communications and Information Technology, the Ministry of Energy and Water, the Ministry of Mines and Petroleum, the Ministry of Public Works, the Ministry of Transport, the Civil Aviation Administration, the Breshna Company, the Directorate General of Urban Canalization, the National Environmental Protection Agency, the Capital City Development Authority, the Kabul Municipality, and the High Commissioner for Atomic Energy.

93 | P a g e

Alignment Framework for SDGs of Afghanistan

Expected Results of the Infrastructure and Natural Resources Sector by 2030

Reaching the infrastructure sector’s goals by 2030 will include the implementation of new electricity projects and the use of modern technology, the development of a national distribution network that provides reliable, stable and sustainable energy services to 80 percent of the urban population and 60 percent of the rural population, and the use of renewable sources of energy for over 80 percent of energy production. The government expects that by the year 2030 about 96 percent of the urban population will have access to clean and safe drinking water. They also expect an increase in the percentage of managed wastewater in all cities and industrial facilities; this target will be announced later.

The infrastructure plans are ambitious. Afghans will have access to clean and safe drinking water and will benefit from renewable energy. Cities and villages will be connected through interconnected routes, and international transit routes and railways will connect Afghanistan to Central Asia. By 2030, the physical infrastructure will be sufficiently developed to allow for sustainable economic growth, access to universal telephone and internet services, and access to affordable housing for all citizens through sustainable urbanization.

The infrastructure sector will achieve the following results by 2020:

 Increase the proportion of the population with mobile telephones from 54 percent to 55 percent  Increase the percentage of municipally managed sewage using safe treatment methods from 21 percent to 25.5 percent  Increase the rate of change in the effective use of water from 36 percent to 37 percent, and the degree of implementation of Integrated Water Resources Management (IWRM) from 5 percent to 12 percent  Increase the capacity of water reserves per capita per year from 70 to 80 cubic meters  Increase the implementation of the Helmand Treaty and the Memorandum of Understanding on Transboundary Water from 50 percent to 62 percent

94 | P a g e

 Increase the percentage of councils in five maritime areas from 5 percent to 12 percent, with policies and practical arrangements designed to increase participation in the management and development of water resources  Increase the percentage of the population with access to electricity through the network from 29.44 to 79.3 percent  Increase the percentage of green energy (renewable energy) compared to total energy consumption from 42.76 percent to 42.8 percent  Increase the percentage of the population with mobile network access o From 89 percent to 90 percent for 2G coverage o From 52 percent to 53 percent for 3G coverage o From 5 percent to 10 percent for 4G coverage  Decrease the percentage of city dwellers living in slums from 71 percent to 70.6 percent  Increase the percentage of cities with civil participation and democratic management from 60 percent to 72 percent  Increase the percentage of urban solid waste management that is regularly collected and disposed of from 50 percent to 65 percent of total waste generated  Increase the percentage of people living in cities from 25 percent to 41 percent  Increase coverage for areas of land destroyed by the flood from 0 to 600 hectares of land, and conduct reinforcement work  Increase the share of official development assistance and public spending on the sustainable use of viability and ecosystems from 2 percent to 2.9 percent.  Increase the percentage of people who use the internet from 17 percent to 27 percent  Increase the percentage of internet subscribers per 100 inhabitants o From 0.21 percent to 0.23 percent for 256kb-2mb o From 0.002 percent to 0.24 percent for 2mb-10mb

Goals and Targets of the Infrastructure and Natural Resources Sector by 2020

The infrastructure and natural resources sector includes 9 goals: Goal 5 - Achieve gender equality and empower all women and girls, Goal 6 - Ensure availability and sustainable management of water and sanitation for all, Goal 7 - Ensure access to affordable, reliable, sustainable and modern energy for all, Goal 9 - Build resilient infrastructure, promote inclusive and sustainable industrialization and foster innovation, Goal 11 - Make cities

Sector of Economy and Private Sector Development

Goals and Vision of the Economic and Private Sector

The goals for the economic sector are to accelerate economic growth and improve public welfare. This sector plays a critical role in advancing economic growth in many ways, such as by creating favorable conditions for domestic and foreign investment, expanding small and medium-sized enterprises, and increasing the national and per capita incomes for citizens. Additionally, it can be used to develop an accountable and stable statistical system as well. The Ministry of Economy of Afghanistan leads work in the economic sector, promoting a cross-cutting and participatory approach among all stakeholders, including governmental and non-governmental organizations, the private sector, and civil society organizations. The Ministry recognizes the important role that science, technology and innovation play towards achieving these goals. By the end of 2030, and with the support of the UN in implementing the A-SDGs, Afghanistan will work towards the elimination of poverty and disparity, and towards increased prosperity for all. There are seven budget units participating actively in this work: Ministry of Commerce and Industry, Ministry of Finance, Independent Directorate of Standards, Central Statistics Bureau, Higher Audit Office, and MSFA.

Expected Outputs of Economic and Private Sector by 2030 The Afghan government, through the drafting of the ANPDF and National Priority Programs, is working to create a dynamic and inclusive economy that generates economic growth, creates employment opportunities and reduces poverty. Based on the implementation of the SDGs, the following outcomes for the economic sector are expected by 2020:

 Decrease the proportion of the population living below the poverty line from 54.5 percent to 48 percent  Increase the proportion of government funding allocated to poverty alleviation programs by 17 percent  Decrease informal recruitment in non-agriculture sectors from 18.4 percent to 18.1 percent

111 | P a g e

Alignment Framework for SDGs of Afghanistan

 Increase the manufacturing value added by industrial production from 13 percent to 15 percent  Increase the percentage of employment in industry out of total employment from 11.2 percent to 13.5 percent  Increase the proportion of national budget financing from national income ranges from 27 percent to 62 percent  Increase the ratio of domestic revenue compared to GDP from 11.5 percent to 12.27 percent  Increase the share of foreign direct investment (FDI) to GDP from 11.3 percent to 11.57 percent  Increase Afghanistan’s share of exports compared to total world exports from 0.0045 percent to 0.007 percent  Increase the GDP from $20.5 billion to $23.22 billion  Increase the amount of money allocated to public-private partnerships from $14 million to $15 million  Increase the proportion of SDG indicators produced at the national level from 24 percent to 80 percent  Increase the dollar value of resources allocated to improving the capacity of developing countries from $15,000 to $30,000

Goals and Targets of the Economic and Private Sector by 2020 This sector consists of five goals: Goal 1 - end poverty in all its forms everywhere; Goal 9 - build resilient infrastructure, promote inclusive and sustainable industrialization and foster innovation; Goal 10 - reduce inequality within and among countries; Goal 12 - Ensure sustainable consumption and production patterns; and Goal 17 - strengthen the means of implementation and revitalize the global partnership for sustainable development. In addition, there are 19 targets and 26 indicators. There are also 57 programmes/projects in the sector with a total budget 124.9 billion AFN.

In order to achieve the SDGs by 2020, 31 new activities with a total budget of 12.4 billion AFN have been proposed for implementation.

National goals and targets

Among the 17 goals of the Sustainable Development Plan, there is only one goal for which Afghanistan does not have targets and indicators. This is Goal 14 - conserve and sustainably use the oceans, seas and marine resources for sustainable development; based on Afghanistan’s geography, these would not apply.
