Afghanistan is haunted by numbers of problems. While people are already aware of many issues security, health …, but environmental issues were not yet topic of discussion. Nonetheless, ecological problems have a strong impact on people’s life.

This series is going to be translated in English and regularly published in HBS Afghanistan’s website.
