The fundamental goal of research is to find different ways and solutions for consumers. It is essential that they both be aware of their rights and that these consumer rights should be protected. At the end of this paper I will try to make some recommendations and a framework through which governments can easily contact consumers, make them aware of their rights, and protect them in better ways.
The current situation in Afghanistan regarding consumer rights and protections is in a very preliminary stage, as consumer protection law was passed during this year by the parliament of Afghanistan, and it was designed by competition promotion and the consumer protection directorate of MOCI, Afghanistan. For the first time ever, Afghanistan is putting consumer protection law into practice, so it is not very easy for a country in this situation to adopt it quickly. But the country can still try its best by using different means, which can be useful for each part of the country individually.
First, I will compare consumer protection law in Afghanistan with some other countries consumer protection law in to see how they might be able to succeed, how they might get better results, and to find out an easier way to create consumer protection awareness and promote consumer rights. Second, I will discuss the challenges while implementing these laws in different countries. At the end of the paper I will present a framework to show consumers how they can be protected by the law.
The research will discuss why we need to protect consumers in Afghanistan by using qualitative analysis, showing how to protect them and make them aware them of their rights. In my research, I discovered some of the challenges that consumers are facing in developing countries, especially in Afghanistan.
