​2) The way it works
-AFRANE’s humanitarian aid focuses on the education field, in particular since 1996 thanks to the Esteqlâl and Malâlai alumni. At the beginning, AFRANE sometimes gave money directly to deprived families, even if this operation always carried the risk of allowing local elders to select the beneficiaries and, in the process, to strengthen their social domination. Besides, considering a small budget and the difficulties to travel in Afghanistan, AFRANE did not always have an expatriate worker on site, and therefore it was not able to keep a close control on its programs, which explains partly how commanders could, in some cases, exploit for their own advantages the organisation’s projects.
