Our Experts

Afghanistan’s diverse ecosystems — from mountains and forests to deserts and river basins — are critical to sustaining life, livelihoods, and biodiversity. Yet these ecosystems face increasing pressures from climate change, population growth, deforestation, and unsustainable land use. At Afghan Trust Path Consultancy Services, we conduct ecosystem studies to help donors, policymakers, and communities make informed decisions about conservation and sustainable resource management.

Our focus includes:

• Ecosystem Mapping & Assessment: Documenting the state of forests, rangelands, wetlands, and watersheds.

• Biodiversity Studies: Understanding the interdependence of species and the risks posed by environmental degradation.

• Human–Environment Interactions: Analyzing how livelihoods, agriculture, and urbanization affect natural systems.

• Sustainable Resource Management: Identifying strategies for balancing economic needs with environmental protection.

• Global Learning: Applying lessons from international practices such as community forestry in Nepal and ecosystem-based disaster risk reduction in Southeast Asia.

Why It Matters

Healthy ecosystems are the foundation of water security, food production, and climate resilience. By investing in research and evidence on ecosystems, Afghan Trust Path helps its partners design projects that protect nature while also improving community well-being.
