LEFAO has a unique understanding of the challenges facing young people and how to best mobilize, engage and motivate youth to lead change in their communities. The organization uses different approaches to engage and inform young people from a range of backgrounds and is particularly effective in linking youth in remote rural contexts to services. It has been successfully adapted to meet the specific needs of disadvantaged groups including orphans and vulnerable children, people with disabilities, people affected by conflict and young women. We also work with a range of institutions and service-providers to promote effective youth engagement strategies. This includes health workers, officials, teachers, community elders, and CSO representatives. We also support major development agencies to develop their youth programs and policies as well as supported private and public sector service-providers to reach young people more effectively.

Education is rapidly becoming essential to attaining social mobility and economic stability, especially in an increasingly globalized world where technical skills and knowledge are necessary to participate in the economy. Considering this reality, more educational institutions are seeking to incorporate more short-term courses and career training into their curriculums. LEFAO is one of the leading organizations working for education in both rural and urban Afghanistan to initiate a better future for the unprivileged and the underprivileged children in the country. With its educational program, the organization endeavors to ensure an overall development for the children living in rural and urban areas. The Organization is planning to initiate an educational program for the Internally Displaced Persons and Repatriates. The educational program also includes vocational and internship opportunities for those who are in need.

In Afghanistan the health system does not deliver as expected to serve the population needs in an effective, efficient and equitable manner. Therefore, the importance of strengthening of public, private and community health systems has been emphasized time and again. In Afghanistan certain weaknesses and gaps in the health systems have been hampering the achievement of improved health outcomes. Public sector in Afghanistan has been deficient in the capacity to deliver equitable and quality health services and thus has been grossly underutilized. LEFAO is providing services of health and education for the poor and needy in Afghanistan. The major activities of LEFAO includes provision of health care through hospitals and maternal and child health centers. In addition, education for children is provided through formal and informal schools. The organization is also planning to conduct research and develop case studies on the basic health services in Afghanistan.
