  • (2): Delivering Public Services in Insurgency-Affected Obeh District of Herat Province
    One Land, Two Rules (2): Delivering public services in insurgency-affected Obeh district of Herat province Author : S Reza Kazemi Published: 9 December 2018 Downloaded: 8 December 2018 Download URL: https://www.afghanistan-analysts.org/wp-admin/post.php The matter of who governs the district of Obeh in the east of Herat province is complicated: control of the district is divided between the Afghan government and the Taleban, and shifts in unpredictable ways. The inhabitants of the district, usually via the mediation of elders, have had to learn how to deal with both sides. The dual nature of authority in Obeh is exemplified by public service delivery; it is always financed through and administered by the Afghan state but, in areas under Taleban control, it is the insurgents who supervise and monitor delivery. In this, the first of a series of case studies looking at the delivery of services in districts over which the Taleban have control or influence, AAN researcher Said Reza Kazemi investigates the provision of governance and security, education, health, electricity, telecommunications and development projects, and unpacks a dual form of governance. Service Delivery in Insurgent-Affected Areas is a joint research project by the Afghanistan Analysts Network (AAN) and the United States Institute of Peace (USIP). For the methodology and literature review, see here. Obeh district: the context 1 / 22 Approximately 100 km to the east of Herat city, linked by mainly non-asphalted roads; mountainous, cut through by fertile Harirud River valley

  • Geohydrologic Summary of the Dusar-Shaida Copper and Tin Area of Interest
    Chapter 6C. Geohydrologic Summary of the Dusar-Shaida Copper and Tin Area of Interest By Thomas J. Mack and Michael P. Chornack 6C.1 Introduction This chapter describes the geohydrology of the Dusar-Shaida copper and tin area of interest (AOI) in Afghanistan identified by Peters and others (2007) (fig. 6C–1a,b). The AOI is located in the districts of Ghoryan, Guzara, Adraskan, Anar Dara, and Shindand in Hirat and Farah Provinces in western Afghanistan, and is centered about 85 km (kilometers) southwest of the city of Herat (fig. 6C– 1a,b). The Kaftar volcanogenic massive sulfide (VMS), Shaida, and Dahana-Misgaran subareas occupy 2,717 km2 (square kilometers), 334 km2, and 171 km2, respectively, of the 8,619-km2 area of the AOI. Water is needed not only to process mineral resources in Afghanistan, but also to supply existing communities and the associated community growth that may accompany a developing mining economy. Information on the climate, vegetation, topography, and demographics of the AOI is summarized to provide information on the seasonal availability of, and seasonal demands for, water. The geohydrology of the AOI is described through the use of maps of streams and irrigated areas, generalized geohydrology and topography, and well locations. Where these data are available, the depth to water and height of static water in wells are documented. The results of lineament analyses are presented to identify areas where the rock may be more fractured than in other areas, which may be an indicator of high relative water yield and storage in some bedrock aquifers. Afghanistan’s recent turbulent history has left many of the traditional archival institutions in ruins, and most water-resource and meteorological data-collection activities had stopped by 1980.

    UNHCR BACKGROUND REPORT HERAT PROVINCE Prepared by the Data Collection for Afghan Repatriation Project 15 April 1990 PREFACE '!he following report is one in a series of 11 provincial profiles prepared for the united Nations High commissioner for Refugees by the Data Collection for Afghan REipatriation Project. The object of these reports is to provide detailed information on the conditions affecting the repatriation of Afghan refugees in each province so that UNHCRand its inplementing partners may be better able to plan and target progranunes of relief and rehabilitation assistance. Ten of the provinces featured in this series - Ghazni, Herat, Kandahar, Kunar, I.aghman, I.ogar, Nangarhar, Paktia, Paktika and ZabJ.l -- plus Baghlan, Farah, He11Tiand,Kurrluz, Karol and Nirnroz, reportedly account for about ninety percent of the Afghan refugee population settled in Iran and Pakistan. The Data Collection for Afghan Repatriation Project (DCAR)was funded by UNHCRto develop a database of information on Afghanistan that would serve as a resource for repatriation planning. Project staff based in Peshawar and Quetta have conducted interviews and surveys in refugee canps through­ out NWFP,Baluchistan and Punjab provinces in Pakistan to compile data on refugee origins, ethnic and tribal affiliation and likely routes of refugee return to Afghanistan. In addition, the project field staff undertake frequent missions into Afghanistan to gather specific inform­ ation on road conditions, the availability of storage facilities, trans­ portation and fuel, the level of destruction of housing, irrigation systems and fannland, the location of landmines and the political and military situation at the district (woleswali)and sub-district (alagadari) levels in those provinces of priority concern to UNHCR.
