Details

Background

There is a large and diverse community of Afghan-German and German-speaking Afghans in Kabul whose networking has not been coordinated in recent years. In response to a request from the network, the Konrad Adenauer Foundation office took over the coordination and revival of a Afghan-German Roundtable in 2019.

The Afghan-German Roundtable is a monthly, casual and informal meeting to maintain the Afghan-German community in Kabul and its connection to the German Embassy. Its purpose is to get to know each other and to exchange ideas on general topics of German-Afghan relations. Political topics are not in the foreground, but are not taboo either.

 

Format

When?         Every 1st Thursday of the month

Where?       KAS house in Kabul (currently on zoom)

The language at the Roundtable is German.

The meetings are informal and confidential.
