OUR HISTORY

Solidarity for Afghan Families (SAF) is a non-governmental, non-political and non for profit organization with an independent legal identity. It was registered with the Ministry of Economy of Afghanistan on October 31st , 2005 (Reg. No. 148) and signed the Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the Ministry of Public Health on November 27th, 2005 (MoU No. 12).

SAF respects all national and international rules and regulations linked with the Non-Governmental Organizations and it strictly follows the NGOs’ law.

Considering the huge developmental gap in Afghanistan, SAF believes in multi-sectoral approach for faster development of the country and therefore, focuses on four areas of work; 1) Health; 2) Education; 3) Social Development; and 4) Agriculture & husbandry.

SAF since its establishment has successfully implemented approximately 53 developmental and humanitarian projects in different provinces of Afghanistan and hence has been able to effectively manage around 55 million US dollars.
GENDER MAINSTREAMING
We believe that women’s participation in the Afghan society is equally important as of men. Therefore, women empowerment and gender promotion and mainstreaming are important factors of development in Afghanistan. So to make women active participants of development there is undoubtedly need of proper initiatives.

SAF towards women’s empowerment mainly focuses on women’s access to healthcare and education. We assume the education and health care services as crucial tools in the empowerment of women, as healthy and educated women are more likely to be self-sufficient, and they will not be forced to marry young, or stay in abusive relationships.

We accordingly have implemented numerous developmental and humanitarian programs in different provinces of Afghanistan in order to create enabling environments for the empowerment of women and girls by addressing root factors affecting their access to health, education.  Moreover, we since 2008 have established an effective unit of Gender in the structure of SAF. We also have developed a gender policy. The gender unit is closely working with other departments and units of SAF to ensure that the gender policy is applied and gender balanced programs are followed by its employees at all levels.  The gender unit in SAF is involved in all steps of program/project development, implementation and assessments.
