Conclusion 
Oppsummering
In 2008, the humanitarian situation in Afghanistan was extremely serious. 
I 2008 gikk den humanitær situasjonen fra vondt til verre.
The complex causes make the challenges particularly tough, and the need for humanitarian and transitional support is still urgent. 
Det sammensatte årsaksbilde gjør utfordringene enda mer krevende og behovene for humanitær- og overgangsstøtte er fortsatt prekær.
Working with key, experienced partners in the field, Norway is an important humanitarian actor in Afghanistan and a strong supporter of the UN and OCHA. 
Norge er gjennom sentrale og erfarne partnere i Afghanistan en viktig aktør på det humanitære feltet og har vært en sterk støttespiller for FN og OCHA.
Norway’s humanitarian support in Afghanistan has thus produced good results. 
Dette har gitt gode resultater for norsk humanitær innsats i Afghanistan.
Given the continued difficult humanitarian situation, it is important to encourage broad support for OCHA’s efforts. 
I den fortsatt vanskelige humanitære situasjonen er det viktig å bidra til bred støtte til OCHAs styrkede og fornyede innsats.
Norway will continue to provide support to organisations in Afghanistan that are working in our priority areas: refugees, humanitarian disarmament, health, and human rights. 
Norge vil videreføre støtten til humanitære organisasjoner i Afghanistan innenfor satsingsområdene flyktninger, humanitær nedrusting, helse og menneskerettigheter.
In 2009, greater focus will be given to the situation in the border areas in Pakistan. 
I 2009 vil innsatsen i økende grad ses i sammenheng med situasjonen i grenseområdene i Pakistan.
These additional challenges will have to be addressed through political and practical efforts. 
Tilgangsproblematikken må adresseres gjennom politiske og praktiske midler.
The distinction between humanitarian and military actors will have to be made even clearer. 
Skillelinjer mellom de humanitære aktørene og militære må kommuniseres enda tydeligere.
