Afghanistan in 2007: A Survey of the Afghan People
The PCR Project and The Asia Foundation invite you to a briefing on "Afghanistan in 2007: A Survey of the Afghan People," led by Dr. George Varughese, Country Representative for The Asia Foundation in Afghanistan. "Afghanistan in 2007: A Survey of the Afghan People" follows polls conducted by the Asia Foundation in 2004 and 2006 in all 34 of Afghanistan's provinces. Collectively, these three surveys establish an accurate and long-term barometer of public opinion across Afghanistan to help assess the direction in which the country is moving during the post-Taliban era. The Foundation's 2007 survey captures the Afghan public's perceptions of reconstruction, security, governance and poppy cultivation—as well as attitudes toward government and informal institutions, the role of women and Islam in society, and the impact of media.
