HA NOI — The European Union and Marie Stopes International signed a 2.45 million euro (US$3.6 million) project to help improve reproductive health for poor rural communities in Viet Nam and Cambodia yesterday in Ha Noi.
This project, for which the EU contributed 1.8 million euros and the rest from Marie Stopes International, aims to strengthen the capacity of local authorities and non-State providers of reproductive health services in southern Vinh Long and central Thua Thien-Hue provinces in Viet Nam, and in Svay Rieng in Cambodia for the next three years, from January.
Dirk Meganck, Director for Asia of the EuropeAid Office of the European Commission, said, "The project aims to set up a new public-private partnership model in a number of poor provinces in Viet Nam and Cambodia to ensure that quality reproductive healthcare services will be delivered to the people in an affordable and sustainable way."
