Projects: RURAL DEVELOPMENT
Social Change Starts Here: Reducing poverty in remote, resource-poor or degraded environments is central to AKFC’s
rural development programs. At the heart of this strategy
are village development organizations, which AKFC supports
in identifying development priorities, mobilizing local
resources and implementing village development plans.
This approach began more than 30 years ago as an experiment in the isolated valleys of northern Pakistan. It has since
helped transform the lives of more than a million men and
women and is now used around the world, from the coastal
villages of northern Mozambique to the mountains and
valleys of Afghanistan.

Projects: Education
A Bridge to the Future: Every country needs leaders who
are equipped with the tools, knowledge and confidence to
build a solid foundation for development. To improve the
quality of education, AKFC supports programs which ensure
better care and learning environments for the next generation, by investing in education systems and the training of
teachers across the spectrum of learning – from early childhood to primary, secondary, and advanced education – and
increasing community involvement in the planning and
administration of schools and education.

Projects: health
Access to Quality Health Care: Despite unprecedented
advances in global health, citizens of the developing world
continue to suffer from lack of access to high-quality,
dependable medical treatment and the spread of preventable diseases. AKFC supports a broad range of health initiatives that enhance healthcare institutions and services, train
and equip professionals with the skills to provide better
quality care, and improve the health of both women and
men – with special attention to maternal and child health.
