Part III Description of River Basins
PART III DESCRIPTION OF RIVER BASINS Picture 38 Two different worlds separated by only a river; on the right bank of the Murghab river, ‘kuchi’ nomad tents in Afghanistan, on the left bank, a cooperative in Turkmenistan. Water is largely unused on the Afghan side. Murichak, Bala Murghab, 21 May 2003 (N35.72, E, 63.19, NW) 62 I. MAPS AND STATISTICS BY RIVER BASIN The map 8 shows the boundaries of the five River Basins delineated for Afghanistan: 1. The Amu Darya River Basin 2. The Northern River Basin 3. The Harirod-Murghab River Basin 4. The Hilmand River Basin 5. The Kabul (Indus) River Basin For each river basin, source of water, transboundaries riparian issues, natural resources, protected areas, land cover, type of agriculture, hydrological infrastructures (dams) and main historical development along water sources are summarized and whenever possible illustrated with pictures. The tables 8, 9 and 10 present statistics on area, population and the main land cover features by river basin. The graph 9 shows that the largest of these 5 basins is the Hilmand basin as it covers alone 43% of the national territory. The other 4 basins have similar size and represent 10 to 14% of the country. In additions to these river basins, there are 4 none drainage areas, namely Namaksar, Registan-i Sedi, Registan and Dasth-i Shortepa. The graph on Map 8 shows that 57% of the total river flow in Afghanistan originates from the Amu Darya River Basin. The Kabul (Indus) and Hilmand River Basins contributes respectively to 26 and 11% of the total water flow. -

SLEAC Report)
Coverage Assessment (SLEAC Report) Jawzjan Province, Afghanistan November 2015 AFGHANISTAN Author: Nikki Williamson (SLEAC Project Manager) Action Contre la Faim ACF is a non-governmental, non-political and non-religious organization Executive Summary The following report presents key findings from one of a series of five provincial coverage assessments in Afghanistan, undertaken as part of a UNICEF funded ACF coverage project1. The project assessed the coverage of the treatment of severe acute malnutrition (SAM) services across five provinces: Laghman, Badakhshan, Jawzjan, Bamyan and Badghis. In each province the standard SLEAC (Simplified LQAS2 Evaluation of Access and Coverage) methodology was used in order to achieve coverage classifications at district level and coverage estimations at provincial level. The opportunity was also taken to collect qualitative information on the factors inhibiting access to SAM treatment services as well as those acting in favour of access. SLEAC uses a two-stage sampling methodology (sampling of villages and then of SAM children) to classify the level of needs met in a province, i.e. to what extent severely acutely malnourished (SAM) children are reaching treatment services. By also administering questionnaires to each SAM case found, whether covered (undergoing treatment) or uncovered (not being treated), a SLEAC assessment also provides information regarding factors influencing access and coverage. It was expected that, due to patterns of insecurity and varying administrative division of provinces across Afghanistan, sampling of villages and SAM cases by district would present both practical and methodological challenges to the implementation of these SLEAC assessments. Therefore, selected provinces were divided into zones for classification rather than each district being classified, as is typically the case for SLEAC assessments. -

NUTRITION SURVEY REPORT BADAKHSHAN, JOWZJAN AND FARYAB AFGHANAID MARCH 1991 NUTRITION SURVEY REPORT BADAKHSHAN, JOWZJAN AND FARYAB. 25th JULY- 26th NOVEMBER 1990 AFGHANAID EMERGENCY TRAINING UNIT 5B GUL MOHAR ROAD PESHAWAR ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Afghanaid is grateful to all who contributed to the produc- tion of this nutrition survey of three northern provinces of Afghanistan. The United Kingdom Overseas Development Administra- tion (ODA) and UNICEF funded the project. UNICEF, UNIDATA, the Agency Coordinating Body for Afghan Refugees (ACBAR), Save the Children Fund, UK (SCF(UK)), and the Agricultural Survey of Afghanistan (ASA) provided master trainers for the field survey- ors' training course and technical assistance in designing the survey questionnaire. Particular thanks must go to Mohammed Daud and his staff at the Afghanaid Emergency Training Unit (ETU), who coordinated the overall training and survey work; to the field personnel them- selves, led in Badakhshan by Mohammed Saboor, in Jowzjan by Abdul Mobin, and in Faryab by S. Hedyatullah; to computer programmer Abdul Salam Khan for designing a programme for the analysis of raw data and for producing tables and graphs; and to Mamoona Taskhinud-Din for the difficult task of producing a narrative text from the mass of data brought in by the teams. Finally, thanks are due to all those, from Afghanaid and other agencies, who contributed to the final appearance of this report; and to the people of Badakhshan, Jowzjan, and Faryab, without whose assistance and co- operation this survey could not have taken place.

To my surprise, and despite the international attention given to this country in the last three decades, I have noted the absence of significant genetic studies intended to depict its complex population history. Available articles mainly concern those ethnic groups located across the borders, meaning that any conclusion about Afghanistan is an indirect inference, as only few Afghans living in Afghanistan or recently emigrated from Afghanistan, have been sampled (Agarwal et al. 1976; Rahimi et al. 1977; Goedde et al. 1977a and 1977b; Hirth et al. 1979 and 1982; Benkmann et al. 1980; Berti et al. 2005; Hohoff et al. 2006; Lacau et al. 2011). Afghanistan is at the crossroad of many civilizations, where Central Asian and Indo-European populations (coming from the Iranian plateau and the Indian sub-continent) have met and sometimes admixed (Bruk 1955; Orywal 1983 and 1986; Barfield 2011). -
