Eight NGOs include: the Action for Community Development Center (ACDC); the Vietnam Assistance for the Handicapped (VNAH); the Humanity and Inclusion (HI); the International Center (IC); the Institute of Population, Health and Development (PHAD); the Center for Creative Initiatives in Health and Population (CCIHP); and the Medical Committee Netherlands - Vietnam (MCNV).
The MoUs express the commitment of NGOs to effectively implement activities to reinforce rehabilitation services and assistance for people with disabilities in Vietnam.
