If humans get to 2051,  i hope there will be smarter questions of what were the most powerful people in the world up to from 2001 in afghanistan peoples part of the world


I live within 30 mins red line from white empires number 1 house in dc

We are told by biden in 2021 nation building was not part of the 2 trillion dollars america spent on afghanistan

maybe i read the wrong history lessons book - i thought the main lesson during the 21 years between the 2 world wars was: you could defeat an evil or historically lost place leader but in that case you had to give the peoples a chance to put their country back together again particularly leveraging next innovation opportunities as goodness me exponential change is what made 20th c different from the past and according to future historians i have read through most of my life make 2020s sustainability's last chance- see eg my father's biography of hungarian american von neumann- 

i am biassed -maths is what i postgrauated in cambrige maths lab dampt- while i am no steve hawkins i believe in  open data (not just machine intel )
as a human right- these days blockchain can make operational consequences of data smart real time without any more privacy risk that public servants misusing it

- america did rather well with giving japanese people a news start in 1945 and the part of germany that wasnt annexed by stalin- -and because my dad served in allied bomber command, i wouldnt exist without american peoples but that doesnt mean friends should not question each others blindspots; and as a stats guy i believe in grounded theory - the maths has never really failed me (except when it was my brain at fault) when people want system- innovation ideas on what communities most need to advance

 personally i wish repayment of that trust hab been such that by 2000 usa germany and japan could all have helped each other by the start of 21st century- thats on the basic things every community needs for next child born to have a good chance at life- as a mathematician anyone who tells me economist is always a zero sum game is quite frankly 1 delusional, 2 not someone my children need  advising white houses if they are to be the first sustainability generation


there is a different story about 2001- at a millennial dinner mrs steve jobs asked fazle abed why do you reserve all your knowledge on women empowerment for bangladesh; abed was only 5 years in doing any work at all beyond villages with no electricity no phones - but it was trus his japanese partners had forme brac internt in 1995- he responded some things will take me time because we have promised to deliver some huge projects in bangladesh and a bangla headquartered ngo can fund raise for international sdg networking ; so i need to find a headquarters without politics (where at least one of the parties surpresses women or those of minority colour) if brac is to go international but if an international fund can be set up bto franchise bracs girls schools in afghanisaan tat would be timely;; i dotnt have the figures on my desk at this moment but probably hundreds of thousands of girls were empowered by brac schools in afghanistan and at much less than 1% of the us budget; also around 2012 unesco set up a cultural summit where the aga khan and abed were 2 most respected muslim speakers and jack ma's town hangzoiu was moderating- i dont know why the aga khan did not look at whether muslim-wide intervention coud have increased the value of women in afghanistan

i do now that afghainstan is a landlocked nation - the hardesr to sustain if neighbors all turn against you or the world turns against all of them

i have visited 25 countries in asia but not afghanistan so i should stop -if you have a positive idea please comment or question me chris.macrae@yahoo.co.uk n bethesda MD

1995 afghanistan

AFGHANISTAN


Founded in 2002

In 2002, BRAC started its first international operation by venturing into Afghanistan. Since then, we have continued to play a significant role in the country’s development. We provide essential services and support in 95 districts under 14 provinces and hard to reach communities.
With support from the UK’s Department for International Development, our education project ensures secondary, higher secondary, technical and vocational education for over 49,000 girls. We work on systematic reform to improve access and performance of students, primarily through community based schools and hub schools after graduation. Our approach improves participation, raises awareness on gender equality and child rights, and encourages ownership of the community.
The Ministry of Public Health guides us in reducing the prevalence of malaria. We work with female community health workers to assist the government in improving access to quality health care, especially for new mothers and children.
We support social development projects in partnership with the Ministry of Rural Rehabilitation and Development through the Citizen’s Charter programme. We work with communities, as well as provincial and national level officials of the Ministry, to build their rural infrastructure. We are also building capacity through our BRAC Training and Resource Centre in Kabul. We train our staff, as well staff from other organisations in the public and private sector.
