Vietnam’s economic growth continues but, the disparity between rural and urban areas persists nonetheless. Handicap International has been working in Vietnam since 1991. At present, our organisation is putting in place prevention and rehabilitation projects for people with disabilities caused by accidents, congenital malformations or diseases that lead to disabilities. For each project, we are working with our Vietnamese partners, who will guarantee that our activities continue, thus increasing the positive impact on beneficiaries after we have withdrawn.

2011 will be a particularly important year for Handicap International in Vietnam because it marks the beginning of a new strategy for the next three years. Our two maternal and infant health projects will enter a new phase, while the ‘Safe Roads for a Better Life’ project will continue until the end of 2011. Lastly, the Handicap International teams in Vietnam will be commencing a new project to improve social and economic inclusion for people with disabilities in the province of Dong Nai.
