Adequate housing is a human right, not a privilege. It protects your health, respects your culture, and ensures no one faces eviction unjustly.

Unequal access to housing, land, and basic services leaves many people in #Afghanistan without clean water and sanitation. Water and sanitation are not only matters of infrastructure. They are also matters of equality, dignity, and rights.

Involving women meaningfully in urban settlement planning improves safety, services & risk awareness but participation alone isn’t enough. Women’s voices should not be sidelined in male-dominated systems. Cities work better when women help shape them. 🔗 bit.ly/4bb8QV7

【神田眞人ADB総裁のコメント】女性がリーダーシップを発揮する時、すべての人が恩恵を受けます。この #国際女性デーに際し、ADBは、リーダー、イノベーター、そしてより強靭な社会の構築者として変化を牽引しているアジア・太平洋地域の女性と女子を称えます。女性と女子をエンパワーすることは、単に正しいというだけではありません。それは必須要件です。機会の喪失となるか、成長の分かち合いとなるかの違いを生むものです。女性が教育、金融、テクノロジー、そしてリーダーの役割にアクセスできる時、その恩恵は個人の枠をはるかに超えて波及します。家族はより強く、コミュニティはより強靭に、そして経済はより活力あるものになります。 ADBは、女性と女子が自らのコミュニティや経済においてリーダーシップを発揮できる環境を創出することに、引き続き尽力していきます。 #IWD2026 @ADBPresident

Cities in #Afghanistan are growing fast — from small towns to expanding skylines. But growth without planning isn’t progress.🏙️ Planned #urban expansion means access to services, less inequality, and healthier cities for all. 🗺️Mazar-e-Sharif’s Expansion from 1985 to 2025.

Afghanistan is vulnerable to environmental degradation. Poor waste and water management and the lack of green spaces threaten people’s health. Through targeted urban planning and community actions, we can protect the environment and improve people’s lives. #Afghanistan
