Implementation of governance support program in Quang Ngai

The Implementation Support Program (ISP) is aimed to enhance the quality of the Vietnamese Government’s Program for Communes Facing Extreme Hardship in Ethnic Minority and Mountainous Areas (Program 135-Phase 2) in Quang Ngai Province. 

The objective is to reduce poverty and foster, secure and sustainable livelihoods for those living in the province’s 43 poorest and most marginal communes. These communes are also home to the large majority of Quang Ngai province’s ethnic minority population. The program is also designed to help distil and disseminate lessons from Quang Ngai which may assist the Government of Vietnam and its program partners in the delivery of P-135- II nationally.

In September 2008, GHD was appointed to provide technical assistance to the Implementation Support for Program (ISP) 135 Phase II (P-135-II) in Quang Ngai Province, Central Vietnam. This program is managed and implemented by the Quang Ngai Provincial Government. The ISP supports the delivery of P-135-II through strategic activities such as planning assistance, training and capacity building and monitoring and evaluation at all levels (province, district, commune and local community). The Australian Agency for International Development (AusAID) will provide the QN ISP program with AUD $12.4 million in funding over the period 2008 to 2012. In addition, AusAID, alongside the World Bank and the government’s of Finland, Ireland and the United Kingdom, are providing financial and technical support to the Government of Vietnam’s Program-135-II at both provincial and national levels.
