RDSC as a Non-Profit Organisation
|
Towards 15 years of community service
Non-profit organisations are a disctinct group, which has a number of features in their organisational design, and operations. At the stage of its formulation, in 1994, RDSC took the best practices in designing its organisations as a non-profit entity in an environment, where there was a lack of legisations regulating the non-profit sector. The organisation has consistantly been pursueing these principles.

First quarter review, 2nd Phase of the Phu Tho Programme, 2008
|

In agreement with ICCO, the project “Strengthening participation of the citizen in socio-economic planning in Phu Tho province” was completed in Oct 2007. The second phase of the project is proposed to further consolidate the achievement of the first three years and support the local community in taking over the programme management in a more focused approach. The second phase plan was submitted to ICCO for financial support in the last quarter of 2007 and it is under a positive discussion. This paper is to review the project concepts of the second phase in Phu tho, and the progress in the first quarter of its implementation.

UNDP - Asia Pacific Human Development Academic Fellowship
|
The human development approach puts people at the centre of development. It recognizes economic drivers for change but goes beyond them to raise issues of enlarging human capabilities and expanding people’s choices.
The objective of the Academic Fellowship is to encourage young Ph.D. students from the Asia Pacifific region to analyse critical development issues from a human development perspective, contributing to development theory, applications and policies. Thus, the Fellows are expected to push the frontiers of research on human development while analyzing, through the human development lens, issues directly or indirectly related to human development. The research must focus on a well-defifined aspect of human development under the theme selected for the year and can be theoretical, applied, policy oriented, or a combination.

Sharing Workshop on Microfinance Against Poverty for Rural Poor Women
|
RDSC's experience in the last decade in various provinces shows that despite the fact that in
Vietnam rural areas, there are a number of credit sources available, women, especially the poor ones, continue expressing their demand for the services of micro-finance institutions that they control. To review the experience in micro-finance in the last ten years, in 12-13 July 2007, RDSC organises a two-day workshop and invites interested develoment professionals to join this gathering in Thanh Thuy District, Phu Tho Province.
