The US$2 million project funded by the “One UN” organisation will be implemented over a period of two years with the aim of helping Vietnam deal with labour-related issues such as revising its Labour Code and promoting healthy labour relations between ministries, sectors and localities.

The project is based on a national cooperation framework of steady job promotion in Vietnam in the 2006-2010 period, signed by the Vietnamese Government and the ILO, and a memorandum of understanding on cooperation in the 2008-2001 period between the Asia Pacific ILO Office and MOLISA.
