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

The Window of Hope Orphanage

This orphanage provides care and a home for 10 children with disabilities, some of whom require 24/7 care.

There is little understanding of or support for disabled children in Afghanistan and kids are often abandoned on the street as families can neither cope nor afford to feed someone who is unable to contribute to the family income.

Over the years, the Foundation has seen the facilities and care provided at the home improve no end. Members of staff are receiving training, the children now have a good diet, receive dental and medical attention when required, medications, schooling and outings.

Much is being done to raise awareness in the government and wider public and to help families to look after their disabled child at home.

The Foundation recently joined together with Enabled Children Initiative and the Karen Woo Foundation to jointly provide on-going annual funding.
