Partnership, networking, and active coordination are very important elements of efficient and effective development work, yet few NGO, UN agencies, or donor projects are successful in this endeavor. In both VFI’s Land & Livelihoods and Protection and Empowerment of Women and Children projects in Laos, networking and coordination are essential to project success, and VFI has begun to take a lead role. In the indigenous land rights arena in northeast Cambodia, VFC is also a key player in developing and maintaining partnerships, a significant task in the face of private sector and government obstacles to pro-poor activities in the area. Listed below are just a few of our active partner: we will add to this list soon. In the meantime, meet a few of our partners by clicking on the links below!
