NCPR Structure:

The NCPR is located in and affiliated to Kabul University. Even so, it enjoys a degree of autonomy to operate at the national level while remaining a part of the academic structure of the Kabul University. Towards this end, the NCPR has got a Steering Committee of which the Chancellor of Kabul University is an ex-officio Chairperson. The Steering Committee shall oversee the administrative and financial management of the NCPR. Precise details of the composition of the Steering Committee are worked out in close consultation with the authorities of the University. As a broad principle, it is suggested that the membership of the

Steering Committee is drawn from the following sources:

1. Faculty members from relevant disciplines within the University (Law, Economics and Social Sciences).
2. The Representative and one nominee of the Konrad Adenauer Foundation.
3. Representatives drawn from other universities in Afghanistan.
4. Certain number of Senior Fellows/ Visiting Scholars / Afghan Scholars in Residence or associated with the NCPR.

Additionally, wherever possible, care should be taken to ensure representation on the Steering Committee of adequate number of women and cross-section of disciplines involved in the work of the NCPR
