EDITED BY JENNIFER HEATH AND ASHRAF ZAHEDI
The first comprehensive look at youth living in a country attempting to rebuild itself after three decades of civil conflict, Children of Afghanistan relies on the research and fieldwork of twenty-one experts to cover an incredible range of topics. Focusing on the full scope of childhood, from birth through young adulthood, this edited volume examines a myriad of issues (see Table of Contents).
Children of Afghanistan is the first volume that not only analyzes a myriad of challenges facing Afghan children across class, gender, and region, but also offers ideas to help solve the problems they face. With nearly half the population under the age of 15, the future of the country no doubt lies with its children. Those who seek peace in the region must find solutions to the host of crises that continue to
negatively impact Afghan children and their future.
The authors of Children of Afghanistan provide child-centered solutions to rebuilding the country's
cultural, social, and economic institutions.
