Falling short (en anglais seulement)

Increasing insecurity and criminality is jeopardising progress in Afghanistan. With low government revenues, international assistance constitutes around 90% of all public expenditure in the country, thus how
it is spent has an enormous impact on the lives of almost all Afghans and will determine the success of reconstruction and development.

Given the links between development and security, the effectiveness
of aid also has a major impact on peace and stability in the country.

Yet thus far aid has been insufficient and in many cases wasteful or ineffective.

There is therefore no time to lose: donors must take urgent
steps to increase and improve their assistance to Afghanistan.
