Kunduz Rehabilitation Agency (KRA) is an NGO that was established in Kunduz city of In Afghanistan in 1995. KRA emerged from Afghanaid International UK NGO and was named after the city of Kunduz, where it was established.

Since its inception, KRA has been committed to uplifting the downtrodden, disadvantaged, and vulnerable groups of people in Afghanistan. KRA firmly believes that development is not limited to a single dimension but encompasses physical, social, and economic dimensions.
