AADO’s work is not funded by DFAT’s Overseas Aid Program because no mechanism is in place for diaspora-led NGO’s like AADO. We are working hard to change this because successive Governments have committed to more fully recognise the place of diaspora-led NGO’s delivering Australian Aid.
This war-torn country is not an easy place in which to work but we say its 34 million people are resilient and deserve our support. The answer to many of Afghanistan’s problems is education. Progress has been good in rebuilding the education system post the Taliban decade in which girls were prohibited from attending and many teachers fled the country.
However our work is with those who missed out on education – girls in remote villages married at a young age, young men in Kabul with few skills and little prospect of work and teachers who needed post-secondary qualifications in science. We hope you can assist by donating to one or more of our programs.
