Programme Rationale
Poverty in Ha Giang province closely correlates with its local ethnic minority communities. Some areas have considerable levels of environmental degradation, including parts of the upland northern districts. Women are often particularly disadvantaged with higher workloads and little participation in family and community decision-making processes. The programme design incorporates specific strategies to ensure that women have equitable access to programme resources and appropriate representation in decision-making processes.
Programme Objectives
The goal is to improve the socio-economic status of the poorest households in the programme area, with particular emphasis on community-driven development approaches. Programme purposes are to: (i) improve food security and living standards for the poorest households; (ii) develop strong grassroots institutions that manage community resources better; (iii) improve decentralised development approaches; (iv) improve the socio-economic status of women; (v) improve village-level infrastructure; and (vi) improve management of natural resources.
