Locations

Afghanistan

Afghanistan’s infrastructure base remains severely underdeveloped after decades of conflict, with major gaps in transport, electricity generation and water systems. Connectivity projects linking Central and South Asia have been viewed as potential drivers of trade and economic stabilisation. However, limited fiscal space, sanctions-related financial isolation and weak institutional capacity significantly constrain infrastructure financing and private investment. Sustainable development will depend on improved governance frameworks, regional cooperation and gradual restoration of investor confidence.

Aland Islands

The Åland Islands prioritize port modernization, ferry connections, renewable energy, and digital infrastructure to support trade, tourism, and regional connectivity. As an autonomous region of Finland, financing is provided through national budgets and EU structural funds. Geographic isolation and maritime transport requirements heavily influence infrastructure planning. Climate adaptation, energy sustainability, and connectivity remain central priorities for long-term development.
