CHDO emerged from the collective resolve of Afghan communities and experts to address the pressing socio-economic challenges prevalent across various villages, districts, and provinces. With a mission to foster holistic development, CHDO endeavors to uplift Afghan society amidst the pervasive hardships induced by decades of conflict. Moreover, widespread despair, stress, and grief haunt the social fabric, exacerbated by inadequate sanitation and hygiene standards, perpetuating the risk of diseases such as COVID-19.

CHDO is dedicated to upgrading these conditions and enhancing community well-being through multifaceted interventions spanning agriculture, health, education, WASH, livelihood, research and business development. Guided by a seasoned leadership comprising individuals with diverse expertise and a track record of successful project implementation both inside Afghanistan and at the international level, CHDO is poised to make a meaningful difference in the lives of vulnerable Afghans.

With a commitment that remains steadfast, CHDO leverages its extensive experience, notably gained through the predecessor organization ‘Ehsan Rehabilitation Organization,’ which transitioned to ‘Ehsas Rehabilitation Organization’ with a focus on education, health, and development. CHDO is dedicated to providing essential health, livelihood, and humanitarian support to Afghan communities in need.

CHDO is a non-governmental, not-for-profit and non-partisan organization established in 2022 by a group of national and international experts after a series of meetings and discussions. CHDO is registered with the NGO Directorate of the Ministry of Economy of Afghanistan under the Registration/ License No: 5319.

Vision: A society free of violence and discrimination where people can exercise their human rights based on the concepts of civil society, democracy, justice, and gender equality.
