Civil Society and People’s Participation Mid Term Review of the Grassroots Democracy Project
The program is in direct support of government's effort to promote grassroots participation as promulgated through the Grassroots Democracy Decree (GDD decrees 78 & 79) of Vietnam. Thus the project advances the increased knowledge and awareness by Vietnamese people and government officials especially at commune and village level on the GDD and related rights and responsibilities of right holders and duty bearers. The Mid Term Review was commissioned to assess the progress, relevance and effectiveness of the grassroots democracy project and suggest activities for increasing community participation and project sustainability. It was also meant to assess the quality of people's participation.
