FGA Vision:
Strives for a just and lasting change in which the poor and vulnerable persons or communities have access to opportunities.
Shared with the Future Generations Global community, Future Generations Afghanistan seeks a shift in practice informed by our SEED-SCALE methodology toward the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and beyond. The shared vision is a world-circling network of mutually informing communities, responding to emerging challenges with local change, and advancing how present generations can shape improved futures for generations yet-to-come.
The Future Generations Afghanistan (FGA) started its operations in
Afghanistan in
May 2002, and
registered an INGO with the Ministry of Economy of the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan in 20 October
2005. The FGA country office is located in Kabul with provincial offices in Nangarhar, Laghman,
Kunar, Nuristan, Nimroz, Logar, Badghis, Kandahar, Herat and Wardak provinces, rendering development and humanitarian operations in
urban and rural localities. FGA has successfully partnered with Future Generations in India, China
and Peru in the design of training and compiling of lessons-learned from community-managed health
care, empowerment of women and marginalized groups and community-based development programs. FGA has
also collaborated on a number of community-based development initiatives with the Afghan MRRD, MoPH,
NEPA, MoRRD, MoE, NEPA, IDLG as well as with UN agencies (WFP, FAO, UNDP, OCHA-AHF), international
organizations/diplomatic mission (JICA, USAID, CIDA, French and USA Embassies) in Afghanistan and
academia (Johns Hopkins University and Future Generations University).
The FGA’s early programs began with mobilizing and empowering communities to form locally driven initiatives in literacy, conservation, local governance, and healthcare. These initial programs were developed around the concepts of SEED-SCALE in Bamyan and Ghazni, extended to Daikundi provinces in central region and expanded to Zabul, Urozgan in South in 2005, and to Baghlan, Panjishir, Logar and to Nangarhar, Kunar and Laghman in Eastern Afghanistan 2007. Presently, FGA renders development programs including high profile national government programs; and are involved in relief and humanitarian food security and agriculture, seasonal support, social protection programs, cash based transfer programs in Eastern and Central regions, and Nimroz province.
