Understanding Afghanistan
Understanding Afghanistan: The Importance of Tribal Culture and Structure in Security and Governance By Shahmahmood Miakhel US Institute of Peace, Chief of Party in Afghanistan Updated November 20091 “Over the centuries, trying to understand the Afghans and their country was turned into a fine art and a game of power politics by the Persians, the Mongols, the British, the Soviets and most recently the Pakistanis. But no outsider has ever conquered them or claimed their soul.”2 “Playing chess by telegraph may succeed, but making war and planning a campaign on the Helmand from the cool shades of breezy Shimla (in India) is an experiment which will not, I hope, be repeated”.3 Synopsis: Afghanistan is widely considered ungovernable. But it was peaceful and thriving during the reign of King Zahir Shah (1933-1973). And while never held under the sway of a strong central government, the culture has developed well-established codes of conduct. Shuras (councils) and Jirgas (meeting of elders) appointed through the consensus of the populace are formed to resolve conflicts. Key to success in Afghanistan is understanding the Afghan mindset. That means understanding their culture and engaging the Afghans with respect to the system of governance that has worked for them in the past. A successful outcome in Afghanistan requires balancing tribal, religious and government structures. This paper outlines 1) the traditional cultural terminology and philosophy for codes of conduct, 2) gives examples of the complex district structure, 3) explains the role of councils, Jirgas and religious leaders in governing and 4) provides a critical overview of the current central governmental structure. -

Young Champion – Completion Report Project title: Young Champion to increase access to education for all Children, including Girls and the most vulnerable Implement Partner: Balochistan Boy Scouts Association (Pakistan Boy Scouts Association) Activities and Achievements Background: Balochistan Boy Scouts Association with the assistance of United States Agency for International Development took an initiative for the people of District Lasbella. The main aim of the project was to mobilize and identify out of school children (OOSC) of the District through Scouts who were also known as Young Champions. This step was necessary in order to increase the rate of literacy of the District and identify as many out of school children as possible (Target: 8262) and most importantly to enroll them in different schools of the District. 1401 Young Champions, both boys and girls of the district were selected for three days Scouts Training Camps where they were trained in detail on the project objectives and how they can play their role in identifying out of school children in their neighboring areas and write down their details for future enrollment. With the help of Scouts District/Tehsil supervisor and young scouts of the District all the data regarding the OOSC was gathered with their local Scouts Unit leader and was finally entered into detailed database. Executive Summary: This Young Champion project aims to identify, mobilize and enroll those out of school children who are somehow not studying or away from education due to different reasons such as poverty, schools are far, consider education less important and due to cultural norms and values too. -

Honour Killing in Sindh Men's and Women's Divergent Accounts
Honour Killing in Sindh Men's and Women's Divergent Accounts Shahnaz Begum Laghari PhD University of York Women’s Studies March 2016 Abstract The aim of this project is to investigate the phenomenon of honour-related violence, the most extreme form of which is honour killing. The research was conducted in Sindh (one of the four provinces of Pakistan). The main research question is, ‘Are these killings for honour?’ This study was inspired by a need to investigate whether the practice of honour killing in Sindh is still guided by the norm of honour or whether other elements have come to the fore. It is comprised of the experiences of those involved in honour killings through informal, semi- structured, open-ended, in-depth interviews, conducted under the framework of the qualitative method. The aim of my thesis is to apply a feminist perspective in interpreting the data to explore the tradition of honour killing and to let the versions of the affected people be heard. In my research, the women who are accused as karis, having very little redress, are uncertain about their lives; they speak and reveal the motives behind the allegations and killings in the name of honour. The male killers, whom I met inside and outside the jails, justify their act of killing in the name of honour, culture, tradition and religion. Drawing upon interviews with thirteen women and thirteen men, I explore and interpret the data to reveal their childhood, educational, financial and social conditions and the impacts of these on their lives, thoughts and actions. -
