USAID Afghanistan Agriculture Program, Kabul, Afghanistan
DAI Global, LLC (DAI) is implementing a new USAID-funded agriculture program which aims to reinvigorate agricultural livelihoods and catalyze private sector engagement to address food insecurity, income gaps, target populations’ empowerment, and communities’ resilience to climate change.

In doing so, the activity endeavors to meaningfully improve Afghan lives and agriculture sector performance through the following objectives: · Objective 1: Food Security Improved Through Increased and Inclusive Resilience, Productivity, Diversification, and Stability of Agricultural Value Chains; · Objective 2: Enhanced Communities’ Resilience to Climate Change-Induced Shocks, Specifically Water Stress; · Objective 3: Target Population Economic Empowerment Strengthened.
