Independent evaluation of our project "Promoting Land Rights for Ethnic Minority People in Vietnam"

  • Independent experts visited Kon Tum, Quang Binh and Lao Cai provinces to conduct independent evaluation on our project "Promoting Land Rights for Ethnic Minority People". This project is supported by CARE with funding from the European Union. The visit to Kon Tum and Quang Binh was from 18 to 24 November, and the visit to Lao Cai was from 27 to 29 November 2018.
     
     
    The experts had meetings with local authorities, members of the LandNet and ethnic communities in the project areas. Their aim was to evaluate information collection, examine the results of forest management models and livelihood models, and our participatory process, in order to provide evidence for the revised Forest Law 2017 and the community's capacity for improved forest management, with a focus on women's economic empowerment.
     
    The experts acknowledged the significant impact of the project.
