Overview 

CARE International’s mandate is to work with disaster-affected communities in Vietnam to both reduce long-term vulnerability to disaster and to assist in times of crisis in a manner that promotes sustainable improvements in livelihoods and security.

The goal of CARE in Vietnam’s humanitarian and emergency response is to meet the immediate needs of the target groups — particularly women and girls, remote ethnic minority people, and socially marginalized people — and the most vulnerable groups affected by natural disasters, and to support communities to recover from the impacts of the disaster, over the medium- and long- term.

CARE in Vietnam works closely with government partners, local non-governmental agencies, and other International NGOs and UN agencies in its responses to emergencies in Vietnam.
