Mission and objectives
UN-Habitat has worked in Afghanistan since 1992 for sustainable urban development. High impact projects have improved the living conditions for Afghan communities in vulnerable situations, and contributed to the physical and social reconstruction of the country. Historically, UN-Habitat has focused on supporting government in the development of urban policies and regulations; strategic urban planning; increasing municipal revenue; establishing community-based organizations; addressing the land and housing needs of IDPs and returnees; and contributing to the provision of basic urban services. In the current context, UN-Habitat focuses on directly supporting the Afghan people through humanitarian assistance and basic human needs projects. UN-Habitat programmes and projects range from shelter projects to more sustainable housing solutions (including strong leadership on HLP rights); improved access to services, including water, education and social services; all projects are designed to reduce the impact of climate change through increasing the resilience of vulnerable communities.
