Context of the position
Partage has operated in Vietnam since 1973 through various programs to assist disadvantaged children. Until now Partage has established a scholarship program in order to limit the poorest children from dropping out of school. In Vietnam, Partage works in six districts of Ho Chi Minh City and two states (Thua Thien Hue and Lam Dong) concerning 1200 children. Since 2009 Partage initiated an overhaul of its intervention in this country at the organizational and strategic levels.
