ANCBEstablished in 1991, the Afghanistan NGO Co-ordinating Bureau (ANCB) is a non-governmental, non-political and non-profitable organisation operating to co-ordinate the activities of Afghan NGOs working towards emergency state, rehabilitation and development of Afghanistan. Afghan NGOs working in the provinces are often subcontracted by foreign NGOs through ANCB to work in areas not yet safely accessable to foreigners.
ANCB endeavours to promote the spirit of co-operation among its member NGOs. To achieve this goal, it holds periodic meetings, gatherings, workshops and seminars.
ANCB member NGOs are active in different sectors in Afghanistan and some of them are conducting multi-sector activities.
ANCB aims: (i) to be a common forum for Afghan NGOs; (ii) to establish and further strengthen relations among NGOs and with the local and central authorities of Afghanistan and donor agencies; (iii) to establish cordial relations among various Afghan NGOs as well as build a solid liaison between NGOs and the International Community; (iv) to co-ordinate the activities of Afghan NGOs; (v) to provide meeting opportunities and venues for NGOs with concerned agencies; (vi) to provide capacity building in the form of refresher-training sessions, workshops, seminars, research work, and technical support for NGO staff; and (vii) to establish norms as to ensure uniformity and further pave the way to conduct research.
