Grant Description

USAID/Vietnam is making a special call for the submission of concept papers related to the USG development Assistance Objective (AO) Investing in People, with a focus on higher education and work force skills development. Under USAID’s proven approach to strategic public-private partnerships for achieving mutually shared interests, and leveraging individual partner's strengths and resources, USAID/Vietnam intends to launch in early FY2010, a medium-to long-term initiative in higher and skills-based education. As envisioned, the specific objective of this initiative is to improve the quality and relevance of Vietnam's education, to the extent practicable, for disadvantaged youth.
