Human aspects in Afghanistan: Handbook

Abstract

The Human Aspects of the Operational environment in Afghanistan Handbook was created as part of a broader project, "Human Aspects of the Operational Environment (HAOE)", under the coordination of the Emerging Security Challenges Division / NATO HQ. The project aims to provide a comprehensive introduction to the human aspects in any theatre of operations and was conducted as a series of workshops spanning two years. There are many country books, studies and reports, within and outside NATO community, that provide basic/specific information about Afghanistan. This handbook fuses information from the most relevant ones, adding the unique perspective and experience of eight contributors with various Afghanistan backgrounds.
