INTRODUCTION

The Islamic Coordination Council (I.C.C.) is the body coordinating between humanitarian organizations working to save the Afghans at places of refuge as well as inside Afghanistan. The Council reflects the concern of the Muslim Ummah for the distressed Afghan people. It makes effort to maximize the level of assistance to the Afghans by encouraging Muslim organizations to avoid overlapping or duplication of resources.

A number of Muslim organizations that are now component members of I.C.C. have been extensively involved in offerin.s humanitarian assistance from the time Afghan civilians crossed their borders to seek refuge in Pakistan. The Council however was formally established in 1986.The level of input delivered to Afghans in refugee camps and inside Afghanistan t~e size and volume of projects both completed or ongoing as well as the experience gained by Muslim Volunteer Corps are the high marks of I.C.C. member organizations both individual!y as well as collectively.

In view of increadng interest being taken by various circles, essential introductory information about the member organizations of I. C. C. and their respective activities for the Afghan people has been compiled in the form of a small directory. The enclosed facts and figures are by no means cotnplete. We expect to enrich the information in the light of sugg,estions from our patrons.

The specific objectives are listed below:

FUNCTION OF ICC SECRETARIAT

The ICC secretariat does not itself have any projects or run any institutions. It runs the coordination

meetings and makes the necessary contacts and submit reports to the ICC governing board and specializerd con1mittees. Among the various services of the ICC secretariat is the translation of documents into Arabic, being the language largly spoken by the members and Afghans. This covers

information about Afghanistan from various UN Agences, NGO reports and press reviews.

RELATIONS WITH AFGHANS

The ICC enjoys special relations with Afghans. Visit to Afghan Leaders and by them to ICC are very common. Attendence of Afghans in ICC general body or committee meeting are frequent. The purpose is to consult and agree on joint strategies for helping the Afghans, in refugee camps and inside Afghanistan.

WORK WITH U.N

The ICC realizes the necessity of working together with the UN agencies. Due to the gulf existing now between the IslCh'llic agencies and the UN systern, it is thought that something has to be done to normalize the situation and bring about a better understanding. One of the ways of doing this is to jointly appoint a competent liaison officer whose job will be to initiate such contacts, meetings and visits.

SEMINARS AND CONFERENCES

The ICC is regularly convening various meetings, seminars and conferences for member organisations and Afghan leaders. These n1eetings have proved useful in bringing many people

together and achieving deeper understanding, otherwise not easy to bring about. _The ICC intends to continue this activity.

SECTORWISE INFORMATION ON SERVICES OFFERED

BY VARIOUS I.C.C. 1\1EMBER AGENCIES

Even before the country's occupation by Sovie troops, Afghanistan's literacy ratio was among the lowest in the world. Ten

years of war severely damaged whatever scarce facilities were available to the Afghan children further aggravated by

displacement of people in large numbers. In areas not affected by war parent withheld their children fearing that curricula

used in the regime runncd institutions was in conflict with their norms and values. Thus fearing that the Afghan younger

generation would be left without education Muslim relief organisations concentrated significant efforts and resources to look

after the educational requirements of Afghan Children in Pakistan, Iran and Afghanistan.

Efforts were made to impart education to Afghans in a manner which is conscious of Afghan sense of identity and national

traditions and reflects religious and ethical traditions. The emphasis therefore is on evolving a system that conforms Afghan

values and not literacy alonc.Given below arc some facts and figures of educational services offered by various Muslim
