The Agency


KALIMA would like to promote the dialogue between Afghanistan and Germany.

Since the end of the Taliban regime many German organisations and institutions have invested in the development of a free press in Afghanistan. KALIMA would like to give this generation of journalists the chance to consolidate their trade by producing of reports, contributions and background information on-site and to inform the German public first hand about culture, society and religion.Germany has become important to the Afghans not least since the deployment of the German armed forces and the resulting increase in safety across the country. Considering that intercultural dialogue is now more important than ever before, this initiative can be seen as basis for further development and collaboration.

Kalima aims to show foreign values, attitudes and opinions in their context. A direct insight into each other’s culture should allow a more differentiated perception.
