  • Groundwater Natural Resources and Quality Concern in Kabul Basin, Afghanistan
    Groundwater natural resources and quality concern in Kabul Basin, Afghanistan Scientific Investigation Report in Afghanistan By: M. Hassan Saffi, Hydro geologist Edited by: M.Naim Eqrar Professor of Geosciences faculty, Kabul University June 2011 Paikob-e-Naswar, Wazirabad, PO Box 208, Kabul, Afghanistan Phone: (+93) (020) 220 17 50 Mobile (+93) (0)70 28 82 32 E-mail: [email protected] Web site: www.dacaar.org i Abstract Historical groundwater level and water quality data in Kabul Basin were reviewed and compared with the data collected recently. The results suggest that the groundwater quality and water level have been improved progressively with urban development, land use, climate change, socio - economic development and frequent drought events. The main impact of these events include; 1) most of the springs and karezes have dried up; 2) decreased annual precipitation; 3) increased serious deterioration of water quality; 4) increased water logging and salinization; 5) declining of water level in excess of recharge trend; 7) increased evaporation and; 6) marshes dried up in several areas of the Basin, leaving salt crust at the surface. The above impacts have resulted in the replacement of surface water by groundwater resources to support socio-economic development. This, however, is basically not possible because of low thickness and productivity of the aquifers. We have done very little to tackle water quality deterioration and serious lowering of the groundwater level due to fragmented institutional arrangements and poor formulation of effective water policies, strategies and regulation for integrated groundwater resources management, development, protection and sustainability. Groundwater natural reserves have been depleted and water quality has deteriorated due to over-exploitation.

  • Tokyo Conference on Afghanistan
    ODA Topics Tokyo Conference on Afghanistan On July 8, 2012, the Japanese and Afghan Governments jointly held the Tokyo Conference on Afghanistan. Afghan President Hamid Karzai, UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-Moon and then-U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton were among representatives from 55 countries and 25 international organizations and civil societies who participated in the conference, and together the international community committed to supporting development efforts of Afghanistan towards its self-reliance throughout the Transformation Decade* (2015–2024). The aim of the Conference was to deliver the message that the international community would not abandon Afghanistan in 2015 and beyond by demonstrating the international community’s strong commitment for the cooperation. * At the Bonn Conference in Bonn, Germany in December 2011, the international community named the 10 years beginning at the end of 2014 upon the complete transfer of security responsibility in Afghanistan from the International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) to Afghanistan the “Transformation De- cade” and agreed to forge a new and deeper cooperative relationship between the international community and Afghanistan. ■ Aim of Tokyo Conference the tragic terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001.
