Victims of Terrorism in Kabul

The Hazara people in Afghanistan have always been oppressed throughout history. In 1890, when Amir Abdul Rahman became king, he attacked Hazara villages, killing about 60% of their population. Since then, the main goal of the powers has been to eliminate Hazaras. The method of the killings has varied over the decades, however, the murders themselves never stopped.

From 2001, a third of the world’s nations entered Afghanistan to help rebuild the country and establish a democratic government. However, the Hazara people are still targeted and killed continuously and more visibly than ever. Over the years, they have been captured and killed on the streets, in schools, in mosques, in hospitals, wedding ceremony in wedding hall and more by the Taliban, ISIS and other terrorist groups. Many things in Afghanistan have changed in the last 20 years (2001 – 2021), however, the social position and public perception of the Hazara people has remained the same.

The newer generations of the Hazara people are therefore now in a fragile situation without any experience of stable support in their upbringing. Often without one or both parents, these children have special challenges that are directly inflicted on their path. Aikafund is created for the purpose of these children who have been pushed out to their current situation and need specially guided help to find their way back to lawful education.
