Landlocked and mountainous, Afghanistan is at the crossroads between the Middle East and Central Asia. The country’s history has been marked by continuous war and political instability since at least as far back as the 1970s. The ongoing armed conflict in the country is perhaps the most pressing challenge to protecting human rights, and the creation of a legal framework for human rights is still very much in its infancy.
