  • Country Profiles
    Global Coalition EDUCATION UNDER ATTACK 2020 GCPEA to Protect Education from Attack COUNTRY PROFILES AFGHANISTAN Attacks on education accelerated in Afghanistan during the reporting period. In 2018, a dramatic rise in attacks on schools occurred, almost half of which were associated with the use of educational facilities for voter registration and polling; polling-related attacks also occurred throughout the 2019 presidential elections process. Threats and attacks against students and education personnel also increased, particularly in areas of the country controlled by non-state armed groups. Context The 2017-2019 reporting period saw increased fighting between theAfghan government, international forces, and non- state armed groups, including the Taliban and the “Islamic State of Khorasan Province” (ISKP) in Afghanistan. In 2019, multiple peace talks between the United States and the Taliban took place in Qatar amidst ongoing fighting, however no peace deal was reached during the reporting period.238 Fighting between armed parties, along with targeted attacks by the Taliban and “ISKP”, caused substantial numbers of civilian casualties.239 In 2019, the United Nations Assistance Mission in Afghanistan (UNAMA) recorded 3,403 civilian deaths and 6,989 civilian injuries – the lowest level of civilian casualties recorded since 2013.240 However, significant periods of violence occurred during the year; between July and September 2019, UNAMA recorded the highest number of civilian casualties in a single quarter since 2009.241 Violence particularly impacted young people in 2019, when the UN reported that children comprised 30 percent of all civilian causalities and 78 percent of all casualties from explosive remnants of war (ERW) and landmines.242 Rising insecurity appeared to have a negative effect on school attendance.

    AFGHANISTAN Ministry of Agriculture and Animal Husbandry FAAHM Food, Agriculture and Animal Husbandry Information Management and Policy Unit Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations AGRICULTURE AND FOOD PRODUCTION IN POST-WAR AFGHANISTAN A REPORT ON THE WINTER AGRICULTURAL SURVEY 2002-2003 Hector Maletta - Raphy Favre Kabul, August 2003 With technical support provided by FAO íthrough the Agriculture and Economic Develop- ment Division (ESA) and Emergency Operations and Rehabilitation Division (TCE)í and financial support provided by the United States of America (OSRO/AFG/111/USA), Germany (GCP/AFG/026/GER), and the World Food Programme (Afghanistan Country Office). Executive summary Four fifths of the Afghan population live in rural areas, and most are farmers or farm labourers. The Winter Survey provides an account of the structure of the farming sector and the rural farming population in Afghanistan, with an emphasis on food security. The 2002-2003 crop season in Afghanistan was the first one planted and harvested in relative peace, after the end of a long period of domestic and international strife and political instability, and also the first one after the long drought that afflicted the country since 1999, a plight that in many parts of the country ended only with the Autumn rains in late 2002. After staging a healthy recovery in 2002, but still with many areas under the effects of the drought, agriculture in Afghanistan continued its recovery in the 2002-2003 crop year with a significant increase in areas planted, and an very good harvest. This report is mainly based on a nationwide survey, the Winter Survey (December 2002-January 2003), which covered all the agro-ecological zones and relevant watersheds, interviewing nearly 5000 farmers in more than 500 rural communities.

Mirwais Yasini . Mohammed Nabi Hussaini United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime . Nazir Ahmad Ahmad Shah . Sher Alam . Sandeep Chawla . Hakan Demirbüken . Denis Destrebecq . Fazal Mohammad Fazli .

Ziauddin Zaki The implementation of the survey would not have been possible without the dedicated work of the field surveyors. The implementation of UNODC global Illicit Crop Monitoring Programme and the opium survey in Afghanistan in 2003 was made possible thanks to financial contributions from the Governments of the United Kingdom, Italy and Finland. This report, and other ICMP survey reports can be downloaded from : www.unodc.org/unodc/en/crop_monitoring.html PREFACE The United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime has conducted annual opium poppy surveys in Afghanistan since 1994. The present Survey, which is no doubt evidence that things are changing in Afghanistan, is the first one done jointly with the national government. The Survey shows that in 2003 Afghanistan again produced three-quarters of the world’s illicit opium. While this is disheartening, the preconditions for change are slowly being put in place.
