The UNDP is a central player in regards to development in Afghanistan and works to achieve the UN Millennium Development Goals (MDGs). Despite extreme poverty, ill health, and hunger, Afghans define the lack of security as their greatest problem. The government of Afghanistan has added a new goal "ENHANCE SECURITY" to the eight MDGs recognizing the critical role of peace and security. Hence, security is a top priority for the UNDP in Afghanistan.
