Three decades of war and civil strife has resulted in a total break down of most of the systems in Afghanistan. The resulting destruction was not limited to physical side but also a massive brain drain and displacement of educated and uneducated workforce.

Today, even in the presence of major commitments from international community, the growth and development process is facing severe difficulties due to absence of skilled staff at Government, business and community level.

Many development agencies are spending heavy amounts on bringing in expatriate staff for implementing their programs and improving the staff capacity. This not only helps in smoother implementation of mandates but also helps expose the local staff members to proven developmental approaches. However the flip side of the coin reveals that the cost of such measure is much higher than desired and not all expertise is transferred through such measures.

There is a felt need to use local resources – available but seldom considered – to bring together a team wiling to work closely with government, donors and implementing agencies, focusing on capacity building at different levels of local staff and the targeted communities.

Afghan Management and Marketing Consultants brings together a team of experts devoted to the development of Afghanistan through improving the capacity of the developmental staff and community as well direct assistance to the business community for more professional attitude towards the development at individual level as well as on the macro level indicators of the country’s economy.
