A summary of the speech of Mr Sultan Ali Keshtmand, the President of ARA, at the Annual Meeting held at the Oxford University Conference Hall:

Dear Colleagues:

The Afghanistan Researchers’ Association (ARA), in compliance with its constitution, organizes a rotating annual conference in one of the European cities, and this is the second to the first and the opening seminar held in the Federal Republic of Germany in April 2009. Throughout the year though, specific seminars are held and necessary decisions taken as required of by the Association’s constitution. The seminar held last May in London was one of the series of seminars that the Association organizes. Throughout 2010, the Association intends to extend its seminars and engage in programmes such as debates, discussions, presentations, and academic conferences.
