• Assistance: donor-driven programs on-budget donor assistance

2014 Campaign Objectives: Cross-Cutting

Political and legal conditions for peace and reconciliation encourage combatants and commanders to live within the laws of Afghanistan and create incentives for their constructive reintegration into society.

Government and community leadership communicate a common vision of hope and progress to the Afghan people, decreasing misinformation, and increasing resistance to insurgent influence.

Afghan women have improved access to health care, education, economic opportunity, the political system, and justice.

Reconciling and Reintegrating Ex-Combatants

Improving the Status of Women

Campaign Objectives:Afghan National Security Forces provide security for the population, reducing violence and coercion by insurgents and criminals, and increasing popular trust in the security forces and, in turn, GIRoA.

Irreconcilable insurgent leaders and networks are neutralized to a level manageable for the ANSF and rejected by the Afghan population, limited in their destabilizing influence, and denied safe havens in Afghanistan.
