2012 Evaluation of Danish Development Support to Afghanistan

Over the last decade, Denmark has provided substantial development assistance to the reconstruction of Afghanistan, with the main purposes of contributing to national, regional and global security as well as to poverty reduction. In Denmark, as well as in the donor community in general, there is a wish to learn from the experiences with different types of assistance to Afghanistan implemented through the last decade.

Preparatory work for the evaluation of the Danish development assistance established that the total disbursement of Danish development assistance to Afghanistan over the period 2001-2010 amounted to approximately DKK 3.8 billion. Support during this period was mainly concentrated within four thematic areas: (1) State-building, (2) Livelihoods, (3) Education, and (4) Regions of Origin Initiative (ROI) support.
