Afghan Development Association (ADA) is a non-governmental, non-profit
and non-political organization. It promotes and provides development and
humanitarian services to the people of Afghanistan, in particular to the
country’s rural population.
ADA was established in 1990 with a mission to provide emergency aid and
humanitarian assistance to Afghan refugees in Pakistan. ADA now operates
solely in Afghanistan and over the years it has transformed itself into the
one of Afghanistan’s foremost development NGOs, we continue
to respond to natural and conflict-related emergencies in the country.
ADA endeavors to reach the most disadvantaged groups in Afghan society
often under very difficult circumstances. Among those with whom ADA
works are: farmers, poor families, women, the unemployed and the
uneducated, returning refugees, internally displaced persons (IDPs) as
well as a variety of community-based organizations.
ADA has increasingly focused its interventions on contributing to more
productive and sustainable livelihoods, particularly within the agricultural
sector, and on strengthening basic education. Understanding that
resolving conflicts at all levels of society is a prerequisite to successful
development in Afghanistan, ADA has, in recent years, come to include
community peacebuilding as a further focus of its activities. Similarly, the
humanitarian assistance including WASH in emergency and Community
Based Disaster Risk Management will remain the areas where ADA will be
contributing its professional support based on its years of working
experience in emergency-related work.

MISSION: ADA’s mission is to enable disadvantaged rural communities to determine their own development and enhance their livelihoods by delivering projects which strengthen participation, self-reliance and resilience.
Vision:A prosperous and peaceful Afghanistan where citizens enjoy equal opportunities and receive the just benefits of development.
