On Sunday, October 12, 2014, the International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) kicked-off the Nations, Impacts, and Contributions (NIC) social media campaign highlighting NATO and non-NATO partners’ unique contributions to the ISAF mission.

The program runs from October 12th through December 31st, 2014 and highlights national contributions using photo, video, and print products. Each of the more than 50 countries will have a single day which will focus on its contributions and achievements. The NIC campaign culminates in the ISAF transition to Resolute Support, the coalition’s post-2014 mission to train, advise, and assist Afghan security force partners.

The impacts and contributions of ISAF nations will be featured on the following web sites:

NIC products can be found using the ISAF Twitter handle, @ISAFmedia, and with the hashtag #ISAFnic.
