Economy overview (source CIA)
Afghanistan's economic outlook has improved significantly over the past two years because
of the infusion of over $2 billion in international assistance, dramatic improvements in
agricultural production, and the end of a four-year drought in most of the country.
However, Afghanistan remains extremely poor, landlocked, and highly dependent on foreign
aid, farming, and trade with neighboring countries. It will probably take the remainder of
the decade and continuing donor aid and attention to raise Afghanistan's living standards
up from its current status among the lowest in the world.
Much of the population continues to
suffer from shortages of housing, clean water, electricity, medical care, and jobs, but
the Afghan government and international donors remain committed to improving access to
these basic necessities by prioritizing infrastructure development, education, housing
development, jobs programs, and economic reform over the next year. Growing political
stability and continued international commitment to Afghan reconstruction create an
optimistic outlook for maintaining improvements to the Afghan economy in 2004.
The replacement of the opium trade -
which may account for one-third of GDP - is one of several potential spoilers for the
economy over the long term.

As a central player in financial reform,
the Ministry of Finance

the country's economic infrastructure functions properly. During
this historical period of the Transitional Islamic Republic

realigning various functions to better support the national
development priorities. While it is currently going through profound
reform and restructuring through the Provisional Restricting and
Reform process, it is also creating various strategies and newly

asset in the sense
that it delivers all types of information, goods and services
to the public including essential government, social,
educational and medical services. Whilst the relationship may
be a complex one, telecommunications promotes economic
development and significantly for Afghanistan, it also
promotes national, political, economic and cultural cohesion

UNDP has been present in Afghanistan since the 1950s, providing development assistance to
the country and helping build the capacity of many national institutions. During the
1990s, while many government institutions were jeopardized by civil war and neglected by
the Taliban regime, UNDP continued to assist communities throughout the country. During
the last decade, UNDP delivered US$200 million of assistance to Afghanistan, using its own
resources as well as those mobilized through bilateral partners and UNDP’s extensive
outreach throughout the country.
