An honorary tribute to Chris Beales

A tribute to Chris Beales (Founder of Afghan Action)

Champion of Afghan Youth,

We honour Chris Beales for his extraordinary contribution to the lives of hundreds of young people in Afghanistan. Through his vision and quiet dedication, he helped open doors for those who had few—offering not just skills and education, but dignity, hope, and the tools to lead their own lives.

Chris believed deeply in the power of young people to shape a better future. His legacy lives on in classrooms, communities, and in every young person whose life was changed through his support.

Thank you, Chris, for lighting the way.
