A Report of The Afghan Training Foundation’s Promotion and Outreach Work with Afghan Diaspora Groups in London, September 2007 – July 2009.
The Afghan Training Foundation
The Afghan Training Foundation (ATF) is a UK-registered charity, number 1111897. It was granted two years’ funding by the City Parochial Foundation in 2007 to support a part time Promotion and Outreach Officer working with Afghan diaspora groups in London. In September 2007, Yusof Mirzazada was appointed to the post on a part time basis (three days per week). His work has been very effective, building links with a range of Afghan disapora groups and many people across London.
The original aim of the project was “to involve London’s Afghan community in developing projects and creating volunteering opportunities appropriate to the needs of disadvantaged Afghan men and women”.
