By maintaining this distinction between public and confidential information, we aim to balance the need for transparency and awareness with the imperative of protecting the privacy and security of those involved.

Our Voices

In 2011, AHRDO created the Memory Box Initiative with the purpose of supporting victims and survivors in preserving and recalling the memories of their loved ones, amplifying their voices, and advocating for the establishment of genuine reconciliation through a comprehensive truth-seeking process.

A Memory Box is a box containing memorial items donated by the families and friends of war victims to remember their loved ones. Building upon the success of the Memory Box Initiative, in 2019, AHRDO's efforts led to the establishment of the Afghanistan Centre for Memory and Dialogue (ACMD), which represented the first memorial centre for war victims in Afghanistan.
