We are pleased to introduce this study of Economically Active Population and employment in the first six provinces of Afghanistan (Bamiyan, Daykundi, Ghor, Kabul, Kapisa and Parwan). The data was collected through the Socio-Demographic and Economic Survey (SDES).
These findings are important guides for policymakers and development partners in Afghanistan and the contributions of many underpin this achievement.
The Thematic Report on Migration is one of a series of research studies which analyses and draws important lessons from the SDES data which can then be used to inform development policies and programmes.
The SDES was led by the Central Statistics Organization (CSO), with technical support from the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA). This historic effort provided a compilation of data disaggregated by sex, age group and district, giving an unprecedented snapshot of the situation of each province at district level and its people to guide policymaking, development action and service provision. Similar survey is being rolled out in all provinces of Afghanistan.
