- The Linda Norgrove Foundation in Kabul
Where we work
BAAG's Member organisations work across a large number of Afghanistan's provinces. Click on the provinces of the map below to see which organisations are present there and details of their programmes.
Some of our members - Human Rights Watch, Amnesty International UK, Child Soldiers International and Global Witness - operate on a nation-wide basis rather than in specific provinces.
The Linda Norgrove Foundation in Kabul
SCAWNO
An Afghan run charity, SCAWNO provides classes for over 300 children in calligraphy and art, computing, Koran instruction, and a popular judo club.
Judo students have competed in national and international competitions, giving the kids confidence and fun.
Tailoring classes are provided for women who are gaining skills to start their own business in the future.
It is hoped that art-work which will be displayed for sale at an exhibition in a Scottish art gallery will provide an income to buy art materials for the group.
The Foundation is committed to supporting this worthwhile charity but is also encouraging managers to work towards becoming self-sustaining.
