About

ASET provides education, training and appropriate aid to the most vulnerable people in Mazar e Sharif, Northern Afghanistan. ASET is committed to capacity building; setting up programmes that are self sustaining and will provide long term support and income to the most vulnerable people of Afghanistan.

ASET puts particular focus on widows and children who have had very limited access to healthcare, education, and training, in a country where over half the children are malnourished and 50 women die every day in childbirth. ASET’s programs include water, sanitation and hygiene projects with the provision of wells and health care training, community health training, vulnerable women’s handicrafts projects, the building of schools and clinics, English and management courses and Kindergarten projects.
