Open Academic Consultation: A Shared Future for Afghanistan

2026–2027

Why this survey? AYP’s Think Tank and Global University Network invite university students, graduates, academic staff and researchers, inside Afghanistan and abroad, to share their views on what holds the people of Afghanistan together, what divides them, and how a shared future could be built. AYP takes no side on these questions. We want to understand the reasons behind every view, so we ask you to explain your answers. Answers are confidential: only the AYP research team sees them, and results never show your name or email. They are analysed by theme, and published only as group results and short anonymous quotes.

Period and goal: Open only to university people aged 18 and over: current students, graduates, academic staff, and university-based professionals and researchers, inside or outside Afghanistan, of any field and nationality, with no upper age limit. All open questions are optional; 100 to 600 words per answer is a good length. It takes about 1–2 hours. Please do not write names or details that could identify you or anyone else.

Privacy: We do not ask for your name or phone number. Your email is seen only by the AYP research team. It is never published, shared or sold. We use it only to prevent duplicate answers and to contact you about this programme. Results are published only as totals and anonymous quotes, never with names or emails. To delete your email and answers, write to [email protected]. Answers are analysed and published only as statistics for groups. No answer is ever published with your name or email. Short quotes may be used without any detail that could identify you. We record technical data (such as IP address) only to detect automated or duplicate submissions. It is never published or shared. Anonymous, aggregated results may be shared with research institutions, humanitarian organisations and United Nations agencies. Taking part is voluntary. If you do not wish to answer the questions, you may leave the survey at any time. Please take each survey only once.

Data retention: Raw answers are deleted 24 months after the survey closes. Methods, ethics and data protection: Research Standards.
