The European Union (EU) and the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) in Afghanistan have launched a €5 million initiative to help Afghan farmers and agribusinesses.
24 women in nine provinces of Afghanistan say that entering the job market has improved their families’ financial situations and reduced their dependence on their families. However, low incomes, a lack of suitable markets, limited experience, and a lack of facilities remain the main challenges on their path to achieving financial independence.
