🇦🇫Friends in Afghanistan🇦🇫: We at @CGMPitt will help you connect with organizations you worked for in the US to help you apply for the P-2 program. state.gov/u-s-refugee-ad…
✍️Please send us an email at cgm@pitt.edu
Tell us: 1) Your full name and other relevant personal information 2) Name of the US-supported organization you worked for in Afghanistan 3) Name of project 4) Dates of employment
We will try to connect you with staff in the US who can help provide you the necessary letters of support you need to apply for the P-2 program.
We will treat your case with great care and confidentiality.
Many US-based organizations that worked in Afghanistan no longer exist or merged with others. Many of your former US colleagues no longer work at that organization. 20 years is a long time.
We can help you bridge this gap and get letters of support you need.
If there is anything else you need, let us know.
We will try.

Must read @DrJLHazelton on perils of counterinsurgency doctrine. Strategies have appeal because they diagnose governance & legitimacy crises driving conflict.
Counterinsurgency strategies tell us to look at the local level and communities. They often point to a legitimacy crisis that can be solved at the local level. So far so good....
Major problem is antidote offered to the legitimacy problem is building local government. Outsiders think this a great idea, but many local residents say not so fast (because gov'ts are predatory). International forces end up recreating same dynamic they are fighting.
