Afghanistan Urban Peacebuilding Programme
Afghanistan’s cities grow rapidly. Crime, insecurity and social disintegration are an increasing problem for people in urban areas. The government is struggling to improve the situation affecting its legitimacy and public trust. The Afghanistan Urban Peacebuilding Programme supports municipalities and community-based structures to tackle insecurity through an inclusive approach. The ambition is twofold: improve urban security and governance for city dwellers.

| Contesto |
Afghanistan is a “fragile state” with weak formal governance, high rates of poverty and chronic insecurity. Insurgent attacks, while increasing, aren’t the main security challenge for Afghan civilians in 2013. Land disputes, non-insurgent-related physical attacks, ordinary theft and burglary affect daily lives even more. Afghanistan is one of the world’s fastest urbanizing countries placing enormous pressure on local governments and security providers to supply services and achieve peaceful and inclusive cities. Cities concentrate the risks associated with insecurity and disorder: chronic poverty, steep inequality, state weakness and the reduced solidarity associated with city life. |
| Obiettivi |
Women and men, girls and boys, in cities have increased trust in the local government’s capacity to uphold rights, achieve safe, secure and inclusive cities, contributing to improved government legitimacy. |
