Afghanistan Samsortya

Afghanistan Samsortya

MA-based nonprofit promoting reforestation and agro-forestry initiatives in Eastern Afghanistan. We are a grassroots organization supported by the local population. We have a people-centered mission: development of programs that realistically meet the needs of Afghan communities in ways that are sustainable for future generations. In the past three decades, an estimated 60 to 80 percent of Afghanistan’s land resource has been lost. We at Afghanistan Samsortya determined to help restore the region’s woodlands and ground water. We are helping the local community to plant and care for the trees, while at the same time encouraging them to a more fulfilling life and a more self-sufficient, independent and enduring community.

Home Sowing seeds of change in Afghanistan. Afghanistan Through our Eyes In 2004 Samsortyas founder Mariam Raqib returned to her village in Eastern Afghanistan for the first time after fleeing the country as a child refugee. Far from the lush ancient and beautiful country she had left Dr Raqib returned to find a devastated ecosystem shattered infrastructure and families struggling to support themselves in the only home they had. Upon returning to the United States Afghanistan Samsortya was born from a handful of seeds and nurtured over the years by donations from a growing network of supporters across the world.
