Abstract

A group of human beings produced the nation and founded the states, and political organizations have the power. All physical and spiritual capabilities that existed in the particular political and geographical territory can be called ‘national power’. National power has different sources and bases, which are considered to be the elements of ‘national power’. The issue of national power has been attracting the attention of geographers, geopolitical specialists, and global communication experts. Each group has introduced the elements for the ‘national power’. This academic and research article will help to recognize the effects of geographical factors on ‘national power’. In addition to this, the purpose of this research is to identify the elements and sources of ‘national power’. We have investigated those geographical factors that are highly affecting ‘national power’. The methodology of data collection for this particular research is library research. Many great, international, and reliable resources have been used and cited in this academic article and research. The result of this research states that, besides the other crucial factors for national power, geographical factors also play a very vital role in national power. Such geographical factors and their effects can be used to measure and get to know the power of countries or states. The importance of this research is knowing how countries benefit from the existence of geographical facilities and features of national and global power.

Abstract

This paper focuses on the economic empowerment of women in the agricultural sector in Afghanistan. It aims to highlight the critical role that women play in agriculture and the necessity of addressing the barriers they face to enhance their participation and contributions to sustainable development. The methodology employed in this research involves a comprehensive analysis of the barriers hindering women's economic empowerment in agriculture. This includes examining social, economic, and legal challenges, as well as proposing actionable solutions to overcome these obstacles. The key findings of this study reveal that women's empowerment in agriculture is significantly impacted by factors such as limited access to education, financial resources, and decision-making processes. The results indicate that addressing these barriers can lead to improved economic outcomes for women and contribute to the overall development of the agricultural sector in Afghanistan. The implications of these findings underscore the need for targeted policy interventions and support programs. The findings of this research are crucial for informing policy-making and planning efforts aimed at promoting gender equality in agriculture. By recognizing the importance of empowering women economically, stakeholders can implement strategies that foster inclusive growth and sustainable development in rural areas.

Abstract

This study evaluates the effectiveness of community-based development (CBD) initiatives in rural Afghanistan, focusing on the National Solidarity Program (NSP) and the Citizens' Charter National Priority Program (CCNPP). These programs, designed to empower rural communities through participatory decision-making and infrastructure development, have played a critical role in post-conflict reconstruction. Using a mixed-methods approach, this research combines quantitative data from surveys and program reports with qualitative insights from interviews and focus groups to assess the programs' impacts, challenges, and sustainability. Key findings reveal that while the NSP and CCNPP have significantly improved access to basic services and fostered community participation, they face persistent challenges such as fragmented social structures, security constraints, and gender disparities. The study highlights the importance of context-specific approaches, enhanced local governance capacities, and greater gender inclusion to ensure equitable and sustainable outcomes. Additionally, the study addresses the implications of recent political changes, including the Taliban's return to power, on the future of CBD initiatives in Afghanistan. By providing a comprehensive analysis of the NSP and CCNPP, this research contributes to the broader understanding of CBD in conflict-affected settings and offers actionable recommendations for policymakers and development practitioners. The findings underscore the need for adaptive strategies that address Afghanistan's unique socio-political dynamics, ensuring that future CBD programs are more inclusive, resilient, and effective.
