  • 1 USIP –ADST Afghan Experience Project Interviwe #1 Executive
    USIP –ADST Afghan Experience Project Interviwe #1 Executive Summary The interviewee is a Farsi speaker and retired FSO who has had prior Afghan experience, including working with refugees during the period the Taliban was fighting to take over the country in 1995. He returned to Kabul in 2002 as chief of the political section, although retired, for seven months. He returned in 2003 and worked at the U.S. civil affairs mission in Herat for 6 months. He came back later in 2003 to Afghanistan working for the Asia Foundation. He worked on a PRT for approximately three months in late 2004 in Herat. The American presence was minimal when he got there. Security was excellent and the local warlord, Ismael Khan, was using revenues he siphoned from customs houses into development projects. Shortly after subject arrived in Herat, Khan was ousted in a brief battle by forces loyal to Kabul and with the threat of unrest U.S. forces were increased in the area. Our subject suggested to Khan that he make peace with the Kabul government, and he did, perhaps in part on the advice of subject. The Herat PRT had about one hundred American uniformed troops with three civilians, State, AID, Agriculture. Subject was the political advisor to the civil affairs staff, a reserve unit from Minnesota. But much of their work was soon taken over or undercut by the U.S. military task force commander brought in in response to the ouster of Khan. According to subject, the task force commander in the region saw himself as the political expert.

  • Details of the Project Procurement Activities Published Under GPN. GENERAL PROCUREMENT NOTICE (GPN) Government of the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan
    Details of the project procurement activities published under GPN. GENERAL PROCUREMENT NOTICE (GPN) Government of the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan Public Disclosure Authorized Eshteghal Zaiee – Karmondena Project (EZ-Kar) Project ID No.: P166127 Implementing Agencies: 1. Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MoFA) 2. Independent Directorate of Local Governance (IDLG) 3. Kabul Municipality (KM) 4. Ministry of Economy (MoEc) Procurement of Goods, Works, Consultancy and Non-Consultancy Services for the EZ-Kar Project The Government of the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan (GoIRA) has been provided with a grant (US$ 50 million) from the Afghanistan Reconstruction Trust Fund (ARTF) and a grant Public Disclosure Authorized (approximately US$ 150 million) from the International Development Association (IDA) of the World Bank Group, thus totaling grants of US$ 200 million, towards the cost of the Eshteghal Zaiee- Karmondena Project (EZ-Kar), and it intends to apply part of the proceeds of these grants to payments for goods, works, related non-consulting and consulting services to be procured under this project. PROJECT INFORMATION Since 2016, there have been a significant number of Afghan refugees returning to the country. The number of internally displaced within Afghanistan due to conflicts, droughts and mounting insecurity has also risen significantly. Together the returnees and IDPs have concentrated in some provinces and especially in some cities. The high influx of displaced populations in some areas has also added to the pressures on the host communities on limited resources, public infrastructure and economic and employment opportunities. The Public Disclosure Authorized Project Development Objective (PDO) of the EZ-Kar is to strengthen the enabling environment for economic opportunities in cities where there is a high influx of displaced people.

  • Impacts of Climate Change on the Water Resources of the Kunduz River Basin, Afghanistan
    climate Article Impacts of Climate Change on the Water Resources of the Kunduz River Basin, Afghanistan Noor Ahmad Akhundzadah 1,*, Salim Soltani 2 and Valentin Aich 3 1 Faculty of Environment, University of Kabul, Kart-e-Sakhi, Kabul 1001, Afghanistan 2 Institute for Geography and Geology, University of Würzburg, Am Hubland, 97074 Würzburg, Germany; [email protected] 3 Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research (PIK), Am Telegraphenberg, 14473 Potsdam, Germany; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +93-(0)-707083359 Received: 30 August 2020; Accepted: 16 September 2020; Published: 23 September 2020 Abstract: The Kunduz River is one of the main tributaries of the Amu Darya Basin in North Afghanistan. Many communities live in the Kunduz River Basin (KRB), and its water resources have been the basis of their livelihoods for many generations. This study investigates climate change impacts on the KRB catchment. Rare station data are, for the first time, used to analyze systematic trends in temperature, precipitation, and river discharge over the past few decades, while using Mann–Kendall and Theil–Sen trend statistics. The trends show that the hydrology of the basin changed significantly over the last decades. A comparison of landcover data of the river basin from 1992 and 2019 shows significant changes that have additional impact on the basin hydrology, which are used to interpret the trend analysis. There is considerable uncertainty due to the data scarcity and gaps in the data, but all results indicate a strong tendency towards drier conditions. An extreme warming trend, partly above 2 ◦C since the 1960s in combination with a dramatic precipitation decrease by more than 30% lead to a strong decrease in river discharge.

With continued urbanisation in Afghan cities occurring in the next few decades, there is a great opportunity to promote urban development that is sustainable, equitable and a catalyst for economic growth. The priorities of the National Unity Government of Afghanistan for the urban sector are very clear. The ‘Realizing Self-Reliance’ Framework presented at the London Conference on Afghanistan in 2014 explicitly stated cities are to be drivers of economic development. The Ministry of Urban Development Affairs (MUDA) is currently leading the drafting of an Urban National Priority Programme (U-NPP) and associated comprehensive urban development programme. Together these will lay the foundations for a sustainable urban future. However in Afghanistan, basic information for urban areas does not exist, is outdated, or not shared. As a result, MUDA has been challenged to pro-actively guide the growth of Afghanistan’s cities and harness urbanisation as a driver of development. This State of Afghan Cities 2014/15 report and associated dataset is already providing essential inputs to these ongoing processes. It will ensure the outcomes are pragmatic and reflect the ground realities across the country. I sincerely thank all programme partners, the Government of Australia, and UN-Habitat for supporting MUDA to implement this programme.
