UNDP aims to enhance government’s ability to deliver public services to the population in an efficient, effective, equitable and accountable manner, to consolidate a participative democracy with a responsible civil society and to create an enabling and secure environment for sustainable livelihoods.

UNDP has been present in Afghanistan for over 50 years and continued to operate from Islamabad during the Taliban régime. During that decade, UNDP delivered USD 200 million of assistance to communities throughout the country. UNDP re-established its offices in Kabul in early 2002. UNDP supports the people of Afghanistan as they face new challenges and move their country from recovery to development towards the achievement of the Millennium Development Goals by 2020.

"With the people of Afghanistan as its mission, USAID, as part of the overall U.S. Government effort, is helping Afghans gain the capacity and resources to take charge of their own future and development. President Obama’s Afghanistan-Pakistan strategy and the “Afghan First” initiative call for empowering Afghan institutions to take the leading role in the development and reconstruction of the country."
