  • Introduction
    INTRODUCTION I am very pleased to be able to make available the ACBAR Databasefor 1993. This is the sixth year that ACBAR hascompiled a report on NGO activities. This publication, which stretches to some 1200pages in total, has taken considerable time and effort toprepare. It provides a compilation of all the activities (projects) as reported by some 240 mainly Non -Governmental Organizations (NGOs) working forAfghanistan. Whilst the, majority of these agencies are Peshawar based, agency activities are also reported for those located in Islamabad, Quettaand inside Afghanistan. The information is as reported by agencies and ACBARhas no ability to confirm the information provided.However, I am confident that this publication provides as accurate a pictureas possible of activities related to Afghanistan and refugeesover the period to 1993. As a change from previous editions the mainpart of the report covers projects that are: completed, ongoing,discontinued or approved by donors. Proposed and surveyed projects, thathave not as yet been approved for funding by donors,are listed in the Appendix. Refugee programmes, for the first time,are presented in their own volume. The Database is presented in four separate volumes: Volume ILocation - Province/District Volume II Sector Volume III Agency Volume IV Refugees I would like to express my gratitudeto the staff of agencies for providing the data. However,most of all I should thank Mohmmad Ismail Shakir, Khalil- ur- Rehman, Zakir, Shafiq, Shenky Zahery and Sayed Mohammad, staff of theACBAR Programme Office, for all their considerable efforts in putting this together. Theyhave spent considerable time, including theirown free time, to ensure that this publication is well presented and ready withina reasonable period.

  • The Politics of Disarmament and Rearmament in Afghanistan
    [PEACEW RKS [ THE POLITICS OF DISARMAMENT AND REARMAMENT IN AFGHANISTAN Deedee Derksen ABOUT THE REPORT This report examines why internationally funded programs to disarm, demobilize, and reintegrate militias since 2001 have not made Afghanistan more secure and why its society has instead become more militarized. Supported by the United States Institute of Peace (USIP) as part of its broader program of study on the intersection of political, economic, and conflict dynamics in Afghanistan, the report is based on some 250 interviews with Afghan and Western officials, tribal leaders, villagers, Afghan National Security Force and militia commanders, and insurgent commanders and fighters, conducted primarily between 2011 and 2014. ABOUT THE AUTHOR Deedee Derksen has conducted research into Afghan militias since 2006. A former correspondent for the Dutch newspaper de Volkskrant, she has since 2011 pursued a PhD on the politics of disarmament and rearmament of militias at the War Studies Department of King’s College London. She is grateful to Patricia Gossman, Anatol Lieven, Mike Martin, Joanna Nathan, Scott Smith, and several anonymous reviewers for their comments and to everyone who agreed to be interviewed or helped in other ways.

    Guía Mundial de Oración (GMO). Noviembre 2014 Titulares: Los inconquistables Pashtun! • 1-3 De un ciego que llevó a los Pashtunes Fuera de la Oscuridad • 5 Sobre todo Hospitalidad! • 8 Estilo de Resolución de Conflictos Pashtun • 23 Personas Mohmund: Poetas que alaban a Dios • 24 Estaría de acuerdo con los talibanes sobre esto! Queridos Amigos de oración, Yo soy un inglés, irlandés, y de descendencia sueca. Hace mil ochocientos años, mis antepasados irlandeses eran cazadores de cabezas que bebían la sangre de los cráneos de sus víctimas. Hace mil años mis antepasados vikingos eran guerreros que eran tan crueles cuando allanaban y destruían los pueblos desprotegidos, que hicieron la Edad Media mucho más oscura. Eventualmente la luz del evangelio hizo que muchos grupos de personas se convirtieran a Cristo, el único que es la Luz del Mundo. Su cultura ha cambiado, y comenzaron a vivir más por las enseñanzas de Jesús y menos por los caminos del mundo. La historia humana nos enseña que sin Cristo la humanidad puede ser increíblemente cruel con otros. Este mes vamos a estar orando por los Pashtunes. Puede parecer que estamos juzgando estas tribus afganas y pakistaníes. Pero debemos recordar que sin la obra transformadora del Espíritu Santo, no seríamos diferentes de lo que ellos son. Los Pashtunes tienen un código cultural de honor llamado Pashtunwali, lo que pone un cierto equilibrio de moderación en su conducta, pero también los estimula a mayores actos de violencia y venganza. Por esta razón, no sólo vamos a orar por tribus Pashtunes específicas, sino también por aspectos del código de honor Pashtunwali y otras dinámicas culturales que pueden mantener a los Pashtunes haciendo lo que Dios quiere que hagan.
