About this Blog ...

The purpose of this work is to find a realistic solution to the current problems of Afghanistan, a country famous for its corrupted regimes. The idea came to me to use the unique geology of Afghanistan as a comprehensive basis for a total transformation of its domestic politics and economy, and I nicknamed this approach “Geological Politics”. It turned out that this approach is indeed a rare one, in that it tries to solve political problems with geological science.

How did I get this idea? Well, after completing my MSc in geology and geoscience in 2010 at the University of Copenhagen I am like a xenolith, meaning one familiar with different environments and with many types of competences and experiences, for example to use in flexible jobs.

Now, I would like to use my knowledge and social experience more expressively to emancipate countries like Afghanistan to a state of social justice. Actually, in my view a geologist has a moral responsibility to help people know their world, their natural potentials and resources in order for them to change their lives for the better.
