Context
: Mission Enfance
has been working in Vietnam for
20 years. Our action takes place
in two regions : Saïgon (Ho
Chi Minh) and the High-Plateaux.
In Saïgon, we work with the
"Filles de la Charité"
congregation which takes on the
children who over there, live with
their parents under cardboard roofs.
These children, thanks to the sponsoring
given by Mission Enfance on 5 centres
of Saïgon and another of the
High-Plateaux in Kontum, have access
to education, but are also lodged,
fed and well taken care of.
On the High-Plateaux, Mission Enfance
faces a different problem. The ethnic
minorities of this region of Middle-South
Vietnam, are victims of the tiring
vigilance of the local authorities.
Mission Enfance has been working
for the Bahnar minority since 1992
in order to offer a decent education
to the children of this region.
86 schools have consequently been
built on the High-Plateaux. The
Bahnars are also facing serious
hygiene problems in this region.
Malaria kills many children each
year. This is why Mission Enfance
distributes medicine with the help
of two nurses throughout the schools
of the region.
This year, we continue our micro-credit
programme by purchasing cows for
a disabled population. It is a programme
that offers true development to
the village populations and that
is followed by our coordinator.
He works on our actions in Vietnam
and on our educational programme
in Laos.
