Post Conflict Peacebuilding > Afghanistan Reconstruction Project > Aid and Reconstruction

Early in 2002, CIC/ARP began monitoring pledges and flows of assistance to Afghanistan. Using a methodology that CIC had developed in its project, Pledges of Aid, ARP developed a matrix for aid tracking by donor, sector, and status of funds. ARP's model assisted in the design of the official tracking mechanism, a joint effort of UNDP and AACA. Click here to see ARP "s matrix of Afghanistan aid resource flows and activities for year one of the recovery effort (October 2001 - September 2002).

ARP has continued to track aid flows to Afghanistan as the recovery effort proceeds, using the data compiled by the Government of Afghanistan's Donor Assistance Database.
