Local Participation in the National Solidarity Programme Working Paper Series FROM SUBJECTS TO CITIZENS: Local Participation in the National Solidarity Programme By Inger W. Boesen August 2004 Funding for this study was provided by the United Nations Assistance Mission in Afghanistan, and the governments of Sweden and Switzerland. © 2004 The Afghanistan Research and Evaluation Unit (AREU). All rights reserved. This working paper was prepared by an independent consultant with no previous involvement in the activities evaluated. The views and opinions expressed in this report do not necessarily reflect the views of AREU. Acknowledgments The present report attempts to convey the richness of data and information that has been gathered during 29 days of fieldwork between March 4th and April 14th, 2004 involving interaction with villagers and NGO staff engaged in the National Solidarity Programme (NSP). My special thanks are due to the people in the communities visited during the study – to the women and men who took their time, in a graceful Afghan manner, to tell us about their expectations and perceptions of the project, their history and experience of the past, and their hopes for the future. Thanks are also due to the highly motivated and engaged national and international staff of the Facilitating Partner NGOs who are implementing the NSP, both for their willingness to share the wealth of information they have about the programme, and for their generous hospitality and practical support during the research in the provinces and districts. Warm thanks are also due to the research team; the AREU drivers – Laghman, who escorted us in the Pashtun villages of Qarabagh, and Shikeb, who drove us around with undaunted courage in the districts of Baghlan and Jawzjan on sometimes near to impossible village roads; Jalil and Anil, the translators; and the female NGO staff who accompanied us as translators for the discussions with women in the communities. Also thanks to Alexia Coke at AREU for her comments on this paper, and Brandy Bauer for editing the piece.

A family is defined as a nuclear family consisting of a man, his wife (or wives) and unmarried children, or a widow(er) and her/his unmarried children.3 Household In the present study, the concept of “household” is understood as either a nuclear family or an extended family, which may include several generations, interrelated through patrilineal descent and with common interests in the management of shared assets and family honour (house, land, animal flocks, or other assets).4 This definition requires some comment, as it is wider than more narrow definitions currently used by some researchers, according to which a household is defined as “persons eating from the same pot.”5 Thus it reflects the attempts of the research team to capture the fluidity and complexity of Afghan concepts in relation to different social arrangements and situational contexts. For example, a typical extended household would consist of several related nuclear families and could comprise a male household head and his wife or wives, their unmarried children, as well as their married sons with wives or co-wives together with their unmarried offspring. Notwithstanding the shared interests that the members of such a household might hold in shared assets such as land or the household compound itself, the household would comprise multiple cooking places, and the groups “eating together from the same pot” could in practice consist of the different nuclear families, or of different co-wives and their children cooking and eating separately, 6 all depending on their specific personal relationships. 1 The World Bank. “Environmentally Sustainable Development.” The World Bank Participation Sourcebook.

  • Afghanistan Earthquake Information Bulletin No.1
    AFGHANISTAN: EARTHQUAKE 26 March 2002 Information Bulletin N° 1/2002 This Bulletin is being issued based on the information available at this time. The Federation is currently not seeking international assistance. However, depending on further updates and assessment reports, an appeal may be launched to assist the Afghan Red Crescent Society in its relief operation. The Situation A series of earthquakes - registering up to 6.2 on the Richter scale - struck the Nahrin district of Baghlan province in northern Afghanistan overnight. Unconfirmed reports put the death toll from 100 to as high as 1,800 people, with 5,000 people injured. It is also estimated that 10,000 people have been displaced and 4,000 houses destroyed. Nahrin, which has a population of 82,916, was reported to be 85% destroyed. The region is 160 km east of Mazar-i-Sharif over difficult terrain in the Hindu Kush. Red Cross/Red Crescent action The Afghan Red Crescent Society (ARCS) and International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies have made available a stock of relief items for dispatch with a UN convoy due to leave Mazar-i-Sharif later today. The stock - which includes tents, blankets, kitchen sets and jerry cans - is sufficient for 5,000 families. A Red Crescent health emergency mobile unit, equipped with medical supplies, is due to arrive in Nahrin later today. Because of the confusing nature of early reports, the team will not only provide immediate medical assistance but also verify the extent of the disaster in terms of numbers affected and most pressing needs.

    Afghanistan: Compilation of Country of Origin Information (COI) Relevant for Assessing the Availability of an Internal Flight, Relocation or Protection Alternative (IFA/IRA/IPA) to Kabul December 2019 This document provides decision-makers with relevant country of origin information (COI) for assessing the availability of an internal flight, relocation or protection alternative (IFA/IRA/IPA) in Kabul for Afghans who originate from elsewhere in Afghanistan and who have been found to have a well-founded fear of persecution in relation to their home area, or who would face a real risk of serious harm in their home area. UNHCR recalls its position that given the current security, human rights and humanitarian situation in Kabul, an IFA/IRA is generally not available in the city.

  • The Politics of Disarmament and Rearmament in Afghanistan
    [PEACEW RKS [ THE POLITICS OF DISARMAMENT AND REARMAMENT IN AFGHANISTAN Deedee Derksen ABOUT THE REPORT This report examines why internationally funded programs to disarm, demobilize, and reintegrate militias since 2001 have not made Afghanistan more secure and why its society has instead become more militarized. Supported by the United States Institute of Peace (USIP) as part of its broader program of study on the intersection of political, economic, and conflict dynamics in Afghanistan, the report is based on some 250 interviews with Afghan and Western officials, tribal leaders, villagers, Afghan National Security Force and militia commanders, and insurgent commanders and fighters, conducted primarily between 2011 and 2014. ABOUT THE AUTHOR Deedee Derksen has conducted research into Afghan militias since 2006. A former correspondent for the Dutch newspaper de Volkskrant, she has since 2011 pursued a PhD on the politics of disarmament and rearmament of militias at the War Studies Department of King’s College London. She is grateful to Patricia Gossman, Anatol Lieven, Mike Martin, Joanna Nathan, Scott Smith, and several anonymous reviewers for their comments and to everyone who agreed to be interviewed or helped in other ways.

  • Campaign Trail 2010 (2): Baghlan - Divided We Stand
    Campaign Trail 2010 (2): Baghlan - Divided we Stand Author : Fabrizio Foschini Published: 7 July 2010 Downloaded: 7 September 2018 Download URL: https://www.afghanistan-analysts.org/campaign-trail-2010-2-baghlan-divided-we-stand/?format=pdf Situated in a central position crossed by some of the most strategic road connections of the country, Baghlan province shows a high level of social and political fragmentation. The growing instability of the province does not bode well for the oncoming elections, and forecasts future problems for the government and the international forces in the area. With a total of 118 candidates (including 12 women) for just 8 seats in the Wolesi Jirga – only Kabul and Laghman have a similarly high proportion of contenders – Baghlan inhabitants could be easily mistaken for a population of election enthusiasts. However, these high numbers seem to reflect more the fault lines splitting local communities and political groups, which prevented the most basics accords between candidates to take place (*). Looking at past elections, high numbers of candidates are not a new development for Baghlan. In the parliamentary elections of 2005 there were 106, and the number of participants to last year’s provincial council elections is even more striking, reaching 193 candidates for the 15 seats body. Baghlan has been characterized for decades by a high number of different factions struggling to control this rich region’s economic assets and communication links and this is also reflected in the electoral competition. Baghlan is a rich province, with a flourishing agriculture blessed by the water resources of the Baghlan-Kunduz river system and by proximity and good road connections to markets like Kabul and Mazar-e Sharif.
