World Bank - Afghanistan

Unverified non-profit organisation

The World Bank is one of the world’s largest sources of development assistance. In Afghanistan, the World Bank helps to meet the immediate needs of the poorest people while assisting the government in developing the administrative systems required for longer-term nationwide development. The World Bank also administers the Afghanistan Reconstruction Trust Fund (ARTF). Supported by 32 donor countries, the ARTF has mobilized over $4.3 billion since 2002. The ARTF has emerged as one of the main instruments for financing the country’s recurrent budget and investment needs.
