dc.descriptionThis document provides a national overview of key environmental issues in Afghanistan, the factors driving change, and recent governance developments. It explains that conflict, drought, population growth, and weak management have degraded land, water, forests, rangelands, and biodiversity, with the poorest most affected. It summarizes conditions and trends for water availability and quality, agriculture and soils, urban pollution and services, and disaster and climate risks, noting major data limitations. It also reviews energy and mineral resources, highlighting development potential alongside environmental safeguards. Across chapters, it identifies priority issues and outlines “ways forward” actions, including planning, monitoring, regulation, and community-based management.en
