About World Vision International:
World Vision International (WVI) began emergency relief operations in Afghanistan in 2001 by addressing the urgent needs of children and families
affected by natural disasters and decades of conflict. More than a decade later, World Vision Afghanistan’s (WVA) programs have expanded to
development sectors such as health, nutrition, WASH, child protection, and education, empowering women to engage in civil and social change
through interfaith partnership.

WVA targets the most vulnerable in its interventions; including children, women, Internally Displace Persons (IDPs), and returnee refugees, as well as
the most impoverished and marginalized families. These priorities have been chosen to contribute to our Goal of: “Improved survival and well-being of
Afghan girls and boys, building the foundations for a better future for Afghan children and their communities.”

Our work is well established in Herat, Badghis, Ghor, and Faryab provinces in the western region of Afghanistan. We work closely with all levels of
society including children, parents, teachers, village councils, religious leaders, ministries, provincial departments, and other national and international
agencies.
