Linking emergency relief, rehabilitation and development is one of the most complex challenges confronting the international community in most of its commitment to bring about sustainable peace as well as equitable and viable development in war torn societies and countries. Afghanistan is since 2001 one of the striking situation where all international efforts are put into question. Linking relief, rehabilitation and development in Afghanistan implies both an appropriate strategy based in a refined analysis of the situation and a capacity to draw lessons, improve practices and avoid duplicating the same mistakes made in other similar contexts. A thorough lesson learning effort is also necessary to ensure that the mistakes made in Afghanistan would not be repeated in the next contexts where a complex international operation will try to help sustaining a fragile peace and to get out of a crisis an the heal the scares of a conflict
