This report sets out Amnesty International’s human rights agenda for the future protection of human rights in Afghanistan.

Chapter 2 presents a brief summary of human rights abuses since the late 1970s, whilst chapter 3 examines international aspects of the past and present conflicts – arms supplies that have fuelled abuses, and efforts to address the past conflict. Chapter 4 contains Amnesty International’s recommendations.
