Afghanistan\u2019s emerging human rights ecosystem can be analysed through the conceptual lens of a \u2018civic ecosystem\u2019, highlighting a range of human rights actors and approaches across multiple sectors and geographies.<\/p>\n<p>This publication is part of a\u00a0series highlighting the work and analysis of the <strong>Afghanistan Research Network<\/strong> (ARN), a project convened by LSE \/ PeaceRep, and the Civic Engagement Project (CEP). The network brings together over 20 Afghan researchers (and several non-Afghans) with diverse expertise and backgrounds investigating a range of issues. This project aims to support Afghan researchers who were recently forced to leave Afghanistan; to ensure expert and analytical provision; inform contextually-appropriate international policies and practices on Afghanistan; and to deepen understanding of evolving political, security, and economic dynamics.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"\/2023\/05\/29\/afghanistan-research-network\/\">Learn more about the Afghanistan Research Network<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/peacerep.org\/about\/research-sites\/afghanistan\/\">Browse all Afghanistan research publications<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Afghanistan\u2019s emerging human rights &#8216;civic&#8217;
