The Inter-Ministerial Investment Committee has approved 48 domestic and foreign projects valued at approximately 35 billion Afghanis, according to an announcement from the Economic Deputy of the Prime Minister’s Office. The approved initiatives span multiple economic sectors, including energy, infrastructure, construction, agriculture, transport, and information technology.

Officials stated that the committee reviewed the proposals before securing leadership approval to move forward with implementation. The projects are currently being executed across several provinces, with early phases already generating thousands of employment opportunities. Government representatives noted that the ongoing development work has significantly stimulated the domestic market for construction materials.

Established in 2022, the committee operates under the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan to streamline investment approvals and improve the national business climate. By consolidating oversight across multiple government ministries, the body aims to facilitate both local and international capital inflows while ensuring alignment with broader economic priorities.

Authorities emphasized that the newly approved investments are expected to drive sustained economic growth and enhance infrastructure capacity nationwide. The Economic Deputy’s Office reiterated its commitment to attracting further investment and expanding development initiatives in the coming months, inviting additional private and foreign capital to participate in upcoming projects.
