In the aftermath of the fall of the government of the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan, an exodus of educated and accomplished professionals from the country led to an unparalleled brain drain. This mass migration has had profound ramifications on the growth and development in diverse sectors, including but not limited to education, health, agriculture, rural development, natural resources management, economics and banking, infrastructure development, private sector development, rule of law, women empowerment, and social affairs.
Recognizing the critical role of human capital in fostering a peaceful and prosperous Afghanistan, a concerted effort was made to reverse this brain drain. This led to the establishment of a comprehensive, central information hub, designed to harness and optimize the rich human resource potential within and outside of Afghanistan for the collective development and progress of the country.
The Afghanistan Professionals Hub (APH) was thus formed as a professional, non-political, and impartial organization. Its primary aim is to mobilize experts, professionals, and experienced cadres across diverse professional fields both within Afghanistan and in diaspora, providing them with a platform for active participation in the reconstruction and development of Afghanistan.
APH serves as a nexus for Afghan and international experts to collaborate, share experiences, and implement development programs in Afghanistan. This collaboration extends to feasibility studies, research, and best practices in the design, management, and implementation of programs and projects across varied sectors.
APH not only facilitates communication with national and international organizations and agencies involved in the implementation of various programs and projects, but it also encourages knowledge sharing by organizing seminars, workshops, conferences, and publications.
By maintaining an extensive registry of experts and professionals across all sectors, APH actively invites all Afghan experts, scholars, students, and retired professionals, both residing within and outside Afghanistan, to join this platform. The overarching aim is to foster a cooperative environment that enables everyone to work together towards a prosperous and peaceful Afghanistan.
