Sector: Community Development

The Pilot Afghanistan Village Development Project is being implemented in Deh-e-Bagh Village in Kandahar Province in Afghanistan. This is a pilot program demonstrating how participatory village level initiatives, in highly insecure environment in which they are being implemented, can be used to: support Canada’s strategy in Afghanistan by providing short- and medium-term developmental benefits in a sustainable manner in order to win support from the local populace; and support Government of Afghanistan institutions in delivering services to their community members. The project involves formulation and prompt implementation of initiatives responding effectively to the needs and desires of the community.
