The way we work
Our humanitarian work is based on the United Nation’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), a set of 17 goals aimed at systematic transformation of our world for the better.
HADIA Foundation is mostly run by volunteers. This means the great majority of donations to HADIA supports the actual project work we undertake (rather than administrative costs or staff wages).
We encourage the practice of volunteering in Afghanistan so communities can make greater use of their own resources and practice self-reliance.
