Who are we?

NAC was established in 1980 in Norway to address the humanitarian crisis created in wake of the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan. NAC is a non-profit, non-political and non-religious organization working for Afghan peoples’ right to independence, promote democracy and support re-building and development in Afghanistan.

NAC has its head office in Oslo and country office in Kabul. In addition, there are field offices in Ghazni and Badakhshan province in Afghanistan

What does NAC do?

This entire program works on a multi-pronged strategy which includes creating awareness in Norway through various information programs and subsequently raising funds for development work in Afghanistan targeting most vulnerable groups in remote areas of Afghanistan, especially women and children. Health, education and environment are the prioritised fields of work.

Why NAC?

What makes NAC standout among other contemporary organizations is the fact that except for the Program Advisor in Kabul, all the NAC staff members working inside Afghanistan are Afghans and they are directly responsible for management of projects. By making use of their local knowledge and skills, NAC functions as an organization making contributions on ground in Afghanistan for Afghan people through Afghan people.

Proud of our close to three decades of contribution to development and rehabilitation in Afghanistan, we aim at reaching out to those who are in need and improve their lives through a consultative process between Afghanistan and Norway. We believe that with the help of donors and our commitment, together we can contribute towards the better future of Afghanistan and its citizens.
