The Heinrich Böll Stiftung has been active in Afghanistan since 2002 working in different fields: in the first years the work focused on media development, women empowerment and strengthening of local civil society organisations. Due to changing situations, the program changed in the course of time and concentrated on environmental issues, the role of youth in the democratisation process and on Foreign, Peace and Security Policies. This page presents some of the results of the work in the past on the above-mentioned topics. There are a number of publication, articles and reports about events conducted by Heinrich Böll Stiftung and its partner organisations. The page presents as well the current work in Afghanistan on Resource Governance and environmental issues.

We need to act now, if we want to keep the planet in a liveable condition under climate change. Ambition has to be raised and wrong approaches to solving the climate crisis have to be prevented.

​To ensure the success of the energy transition, we have to make the right decisions in the power-, heating- and transport-sector today.
