This report evaluates the work of USAID's Office of Transition Initiatives (OTI) in Afghanistan between 2001 and 2005. OTI committed $46.6 million of an overall $70 million Afghanistan budget to project grants that supported a range of activities, including the emerging political process laid out in the 2001 Bonn Agreement, civic education, government-facility rehabilitation, independent media, community infrastructure, women's resource centers, schools and kindergartens, and international sector specialists. The evaluation finds that OTI programming should have more systematically supported the participation of women in the political and decision-making process, since in the cases where it did, the results benefited Afghan society as a whole and stimulated greater social debate on the roles of women and the future of the country.
