International cooperation and funding for Afghan research have declined, threatening knowledge production. Given the uncertainty surrounding the future of academic research and the humanitarian crises in Afghanistan, this paper makes nine key recommendations to address the challenges faced by at-risk researchers.<\/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>This paper examines the challenges faced by at-risk researchers in Afghanistan and makes recommendations on how to support them.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":166,"featured_media":21540,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_FSMCFIC_featured_image_caption":"","_FSMCFIC_featured_image_nocaption":"","_FSMCFIC_featured_image_hide":""},"categories":[1822,1817,235],"tags":[658],"authors":[2012,2013,1808],"class_list":["post-21539","publication","type-publication","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-afghanistan","category-peace-processes","category-publication","tag-publication","countries-afghanistan","authors-halaimzai","authors-kapadia","authors-theros","themes-peace-processes"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.5 -
