The core of our organizational philosophy, at APWDO, is to provide humanitarian support, to the vulnerable communities of Afghanistan, based on the principles of UDHR and the socio-cultural values of our country and to provide innovative, socially, economically, and environmentally sustainable human development solutions through research, dialogue, networking, partnerships, and solutions exchange. APWDO is an indigenous organization that seeks to invest resources, efforts, time and energies in interventions responsive to the local needs, backed by evidence from the ground collected through close consultations with the local communities, formal and informal institutions.

APWDO has been involved in provision of services in the areas of governance & rule of law, peacebuilding, economic growth, agricultural development, environmental sustainability, capacity building, vocational trainings, women empowerment, youth development, health & WASH, education and other related areas. We have accumulated experience and institutional capacity that enable us to provide professional services to clients from the public sector, the private sector and multilateral organizations, which are operational in Afghanistan.
