Our History

Building Bridges
Through Education

ANAFAE was founded in September 2005 as an umbrella organization to foster the development of local adult education centers across Afghanistan.

The Association serves as a national forum for adult education, focusing on literacy, basic education, vocational training, and civic education. It engages decision makers, policy planners, and Ministry officials to encourage proactive dialogue among all stakeholders.

ANAFAE maintains close ties with the National Literacy Centre, Ministries of Education, Labor, and Women's Affairs. Since 2007, ANAFAE is a proud member of the Asian South Pacific Bureau of Adult Education (ASPBAE).
