Project Context Country Context Public Disclosure Copy Afghanistan is one of the least developed countries in the world. Impoverished and fragile after several decades of war and conflict within its borders, it continues to face uncertainty and challenges on both security improvements and economic development. Its Gross Domestic Product (GDP) per capita in 2014 was US$ 693. On the UNDP Human Development Index, Afghanistan ranked 169th out of 187 countries in 2013. However, the report also showed that average life expectancy is up from 41.2 years in 1980 to 60.7 in 2013, with women’s life expectancy mirroring the overall trend. Afghanistan’s gender inequality ranking is 149 out of 187 countries. Across all economic indicators, Afghanistan is characterized by high levels of poverty and inequality. Public Disclosure Authorized In late 2014 the Government of Afghanistan (GOA) has embarked on a political transition process under a unity government.

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.

  • Mammal Watching in Afghanistan: a Few Notes Vladimir Dinets I’Ve Been in Afghanistan Three Times
    Mammal watching in Afghanistan: a few notes Vladimir Dinets I’ve been in Afghanistan three times. In October 1988, when the country was still under Soviet occupation, I talked a Soviet border post commander I knew into letting me cross the border from Kushka (Turkmenistan), and calling a friend of his in Termez (Uzbekistan) to make sure I’ll be able to get back. I hitchhiked with army convoys to Herat, then to Salang Pass north of Kabul, and back to Mazar-i-Sharif in the NE. The second time was in September 1989. By that time the Soviet Union has withdrawn its troops, and the Communist forces were being slowly pushed out of peripheral areas by the rebels; the border towns were full of horror stories about former officials, infidels and government soldiers being skinned and/or buried alive. The borders of the Soviet Union were still closed, and I knew the time was coming for me to see the rest of the world, so I decided that as soon as I’ll be done exploring the Soviet Union, I’ll get to Pakistan and ask for asylum in an American embassy (someone has successfully done it in Turkey after crossing the Black Sea from Georgia on an inflatable mattress). First I decided to do a practice run, crossed from Tajikistan’s Pamir into Vakhan Corridor (a narrow strip of Afghan territory in the far E of the country), hiked across the Corridor to the Pakistani border on one of the high passes of the Hindukush, and returned the same way (at that time Pamir was the last section of the Soviet border without a complex prison- style system of barbed wire fencing).

  • Impacts of Climate Change on the Water Resources of the Kunduz River Basin, 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.

INTRODUCTION 1. The present report is submitted pursuant to paragraph 19 of General Assembly resolution 51/195 B of 17 December 1996, in which the Assembly requested the Secretary-General to report to it every three months during its fifty-first session on the progress of the United Nations Special Mission to Afghanistan (UNSMA). The report, which covers the second three-month period following the submission on 16 March 1997 of the first progress report (A/51/838-S/1997/240 and Corr.1), is also submitted in response to the request of the Security Council for regular information on the main developments in Afghanistan. II. RECENT DEVELOPMENTS IN AFGHANISTAN Military situation 2. A stand-off between the Taliban and the opposition persisted in the first two months of the reporting period, with neither side able to gain significant ground. Sporadic fighting continued in four areas: the entrances to the Salang pass and the Panjshir valley north of Kabul; the Ghorband valley bordering Bamyan and Wardak provinces in the central region; the Badghis province in the north-west; and the eastern provinces of Kunar, Laghman and Nangarhar. 3. This military deadlock, however, was broken on 19 May when General Abdul Malik, a key commander of the National Islamic Movement of Afghanistan (NIMA), staged what at the time appeared to be a pro-Taliban revolt against the NIMA leader, General Rashid Dostum.
