Kabul， Afghanistan — It was four years ago that Captain Zohra Daulatzia joined the Afghan National Police. But the mother of two girls still gets excited about that momentous day in her life when she achieved one of her life’s greatest ambitions.
“I was excited to wear the uniform and felt like I was in the sky and not on earth. I was full of joy，” she says.
Captain Daulatzia’s experience as a woman and a police officer is still a very rare one in Afghanistan， where only 1 percent of the Afghan National Police are female officers. In order for the national police force to deliver quality services to the entire population， the Ministry of Interior aims to increase this number.
UNDP， through its Law and Order Trust Fund for Afghanistan—with support from its development partners—is working closely with the Ministry of Interior， where the Fund is based， to make this happen.
The programme hopes to recruit 5，000 women by June 2014. The Trust Fund and the Ministry of Interior have agreed to fast-track recruitment while simultaneously addressing the challenges of recruiting women to the force.
