Mission Alliance worked in Vietnam a few years from 1972 and later came back in 1997. The work was initially focused on health and leprosy, but has gradually shifted to focus on climate change, inclusive education, microfinance and community development. Mission Alliance has an office in Ho Chi Minh City. The office is granted project permits by the People’s Aid Co-Coordinating Committee (PACCOM) who coordinates all NGO activities in Vietnam, and we work closely with local partners such as local authorities, Women Union and other mass movements.
