Abstract

This research explores the challenges and opportunities for improving the health system in Afghanistan. The main objective is to identify the major issues within the healthcare system and propose sustainable solutions to enhance the quality of health services. Using a mixed-method approach (qualitative and quantitative), data were collected through semi-structured interviews with experts and a review of credible scientific sources. The findings indicate that a lack of healthcare infrastructure, a shortage of specialized human resources, and management issues are among the primary challenges facing Afghanistan's healthcare system. Additionally, opportunities such as international support and utilizing modern technologies in healthcare have been identified. The study concludes that investment in infrastructure, human resource training, and strengthening international collaborations are essential to improve the healthcare situation in Afghanistan. The study's recommendations emphasize the importance of investments in infrastructure, comprehensive training for health workers, and international partnerships to strengthen service delivery. This analysis provides practical insights for policymakers and international organizations, which could ultimately help build a more resilient health framework in Afghanistan.

Abstract

Developing countries often face the challenge of underdeveloped rural areas, resulting in adverse impacts such as poverty, unemployment and migration. Therefore, it is very important to prioritize rural development and improve the living conditions of rural residents. This research aims to identify and analyze economic factors that contribute to village underdevelopment in Afghanistan. This research uses a combination of field studies, Expert Choice software, interviews with experts, and credible library sources for data collection. The statistical population consists of experts, university professors, and individuals involved in rural economic development. We collected data through face-to-face interviews and questionnaires. We used confirmatory factor analysis and coefficient of variation for data analysis. These findings reveal that there are several factors that contribute to rural underdevelopment in Afghanistan. These factors include management problems, especially the prevalence of unskilled labor in rural economic activities. Financial problems, such as inadequate credit and investment in rural areas, also play a role. Limited social participation and low involvement of women in rural activities are other contributing factors. Environmental problems, such as inappropriate use of underground water resources, further exacerbate this problem. In addition, physical challenges, such as weak or non-existent rural-urban communication networks and other related problems, also contribute to rural underdevelopment. Addressing and overcoming these fundamental barriers and challenges is critical to achieving rural development and overall national development. Furthermore, this research identifies key factors of rural development in the economic sector.

Abstract

This paper examines the impact of Afghanistan’s neighbors on the country’s domestic and foreign policies. Afghanistan shares borders with Pakistan, Iran, China, India, and the Central Asian republics, and its unique geographical location has made it a focal point in regional and global geopolitics. Using a mixed-methods research approach that incorporates both quantitative and qualitative data, this study analyzes the economic, cultural, security, and political effects of Afghanistan’s neighboring countries on its policies. The findings reveal that economic and trade cooperation with China and Pakistan has contributed to Afghanistan’s infrastructure and economic development. Additionally, cultural and historical ties with Iran and India have played a significant role in strengthening Afghanistan’s political and social relationships. Furthermore, security and intelligence collaborations with Central Asian countries and China have helped mitigate security threats and promote regional stability. This research also proposes strategies to improve Afghanistan's relations and strengthen its domestic and foreign policies with its neighbors.
