About NECDO

Noor Educational & Capacity Development Organization (NECDO) is a nongovernmental, non partial, non profit and non political local Afghan women organ. NECDO was established in January 2001 by a group of volunteer sisters to help and support needy Afghan women and children. NECDO started its activities with smallness of the means, but greatness of the purpose, which was based on the humanitarian assistance. We believe that unity, faith and mobilization of Afghan community can reduce the miseries of Afghan nation. During our social work realized in 2000 that demand for education, capacity building and income generation is great; specially educating Afghan women and children was one of the priorities that we wanted to work for.

The encouragement of many individuals and organizations after the successful work and the need for working more systematically give birth to the idea of establishment of Noor Educational Center in 2001. Science start of 2002 NECDO is working inside Afghanistan with main office in Kabul and branches in Ghazni, Jalalabad and Miadan Wardak provinces focusing on empowerment of women, youths and children .....
