March, 2009

Afghanistan's National Solidarity Program (NSP) strengthens and links local governance with community reconstruction through 22,000 Community Development Councils (CDCs) in 359 (of 398) districts in all 34 provinces. With assistance from NGO Facilitating Partners and government block grants, CDCs gain governance capacity and funds to implement projects based on local priorities. CDCs can range in size from 10 to 30 members and should be equally divided between men and women (with separate men’s and women’s sub-committees permitted where an integrated CDC is not possible).
