CONCLUSION: AFGHAN PRIORITIES FOR THE AFGHAN PEOPLE<br />
The Kabul International Conference on<br />
Afghanistan represents a turning point in<br />
Afghanistan’s journey from conflict <strong>and</strong> aid<br />
dependence to peace, justice, <strong>and</strong> equitable<br />
development led by Afghan citizens. The<br />
Government <strong>and</strong> the People of Afghanistan<br />
underst<strong>and</strong> the urgency <strong>and</strong> enormity of the tasks<br />
that lie ahead to bring security <strong>and</strong> stability<br />
through capable <strong>and</strong> accountable security forces; to<br />
create the conditions for peace, reconciliation, <strong>and</strong><br />
justice for all; to build relations with their<br />
neighbors; to extract the country’s natural<br />
resources in an ecologically-sensitive manner for<br />
the benefit of all citizens; to improve public sector<br />
capacity to deliver services to Afghans; <strong>and</strong> to<br />
manage public finances responsibly <strong>and</strong><br />
effectively. We recognize that peace <strong>and</strong> security<br />
are not possible without progress in justice,<br />
governance, <strong>and</strong> development across the entire<br />
country.<br />
The Afghanistan National Development Strategy<br />
Prioritization <strong>and</strong> Implementation Plan offers an<br />
ambitious yet pragmatic approach to tackle the<br />
country’s seemingly intractable issues. It places<br />
people at the center of Government policies <strong>and</strong><br />
programs. Its preparation brought together the<br />
Government, civil society, <strong>and</strong> their international<br />
partners in a collaborative way to forge a united<br />
response to Afghan challenges. With the<br />
introduction of the National Priority Programs<br />
presented in this action <strong>plan</strong>, the Government<br />
renews its commitment to the People of<br />
Afghanistan in their quest to achieve a prosperous<br />
future. With deep appreciation for the enormous<br />
sacrifices made to support their country's difficult<br />
transition to stability <strong>and</strong> inclusive governance, all<br />
Afghans embrace a common destiny with those<br />
who have shared the burden of helping<br />
Afghanistan return to its position in the community<br />
of nations.<br />
