The Afghanistan Compact, the successor to the Bonn Agreement, provides the framework for international community engagement in Afghanistan for the next five years. It was developed during a conference held in London from January 31 to February 1, 2006 [Building on Success : The London Conference]. Representatives from the international community, including Canada, attended the conference, which was co-chaired by Afghanistan, the United Nations and the United Kingdom. At the conference, Canada pledged its full support and was instrumental in ensuring that the Compact included a mechanism to monitor programs and promote forward momentum. The Compact sets out detailed outcomes, benchmarks, timelines for delivery and mutual obligations that aim to ensure greater coherence of efforts between the Afghan government and the international community. 2, record 6, English, - The%20Afghanistan%20Compact

Le Pacte de l'Afghanistan, qui remplace l'Accord de Bonn, établit les grands axes de l'engagement de la communauté internationale en Afghanistan pour les cinq prochaines années. Il a été élaboré au cours d'une conférence tenue à Londres les 31 janvier et 1er février 2006, à laquelle ont assisté des délégués de la communauté internationale, dont le Canada, sous la coprésidence de l'Afghanistan, des Nations Unies et du Royaume-Uni. Lors de la conférence, le Canada a promis son plein soutien et a joué un rôle décisif en faisant en sorte que le Pacte prévoie un mécanisme pour surveiller les programmes et donner de l'élan. Le Pacte de l'Afghanistan établit des résultats précis, des jalons, des échéances et des obligations mutuelles qui visent à mieux coordonner le travail du gouvernement afghan et de la communauté internationale. 2, record 6, French, - The%20Afghanistan%20Compact
