"The Future of Afghan-U.S. Relations: Development, Investment, and Cultural Exchange"
In May 2011, the Hollings Center for International Dialogue convened a three-day Next-Generation Dialogue entitled: "The Future of Afghan-U.S. Relations: Development, Investment, and Cultural Exchange." Held in Istanbul, Turkey, the dialogue brought together a select group of Americans and Afghans, including development practitioners, international organization and NGO officials, private sector executives, think-tank representatives, and government advisors. They attempted to answer such questions as: What can the United States hope to achieve in partnership with Afghanistan in the coming years? What is the current state of Afghanistan’s development and private sectors and how can their success stories be replicated?
This report presents a snapshot of the dialogue and concludes with implications that policymakers, practitioners, and private-sector individuals may find essential for the future of U.S.-Afghan relations.
