Association Parti des Citoyens d'Afghanistan

1) Political Objective: Politics, as the most prominent right of citizens related to the public domain, belongs to everyone, and only the establishment of a democratic and accountable system can guarantee the fundamental rights of all citizens in Afghanistan. We emphasize the concept of citizenship and commitment to the principle of citizens' rights and the establishment of a decentralized system in the country. 2) Security and Peace Consolidation Objectives: Decades of instability have shown that, beyond the role of external factors in political upheavals and persistent crises in Afghanistan, the main factor behind this enduring crisis is internal social and political phenomena. These include tribalism, autocracy, power monopolization, ethnic and religious sectarianism, and poor management of political and military affairs. These internal factors contribute to instability, perpetuation of conflicts, and reproduction of a cycle of insecurity in the country, providing grounds for unjustified regional and international interventions and proxy wars. 3) Cultural and Social Objectives: Cultural heritage is the primary foundation of social identity and community cohesion, and all other dimensions of development or regression, whether social or political, are influenced by a society's culture and values. The prevailing political culture in a society stems from its general culture and is influenced by its components and manifestations. Therefore, efforts to promote cultural diversity in the country have deep roots in cultural heritage. 4) Economic Objectives: We believe that a market-based economic system can lead to progress, development, poverty reduction, and ultimately self-sufficiency in the country. Therefore, Afghan citizens stress the importance of a free market system and support the private sector. The association is non-profit.
