World Vision to launch development projects in Quang Tri
The World Vision International (WVI) in Vietnam will launch development projects worth nearly 8 million USD in its non-refundable aid in the central province of Quang Tri from 2018 to 2022.
Meanwhile, the 2.6 million USD micro-finance programme will provide credit, savings and insurance for locals to expand production and trade.
From 2017-2019, the Korea International Cooperation Agency (KOICA) and the WVI in the Republic of Korea, via the WVI in Vietnam, granted a fund of nearly 1 million USD to the province’s Trieu Phong district to develop a value chain of natural farming-based produce.
The project benefited 1,000 poor households in five communes of Trieu Trung, Trieu Tai, Trieu Son, Trieu Trach and Trieu Thuong, thereby increasing farmers’ income.
