NEWSLETTER 1 - 15 October 2009

Welcome to the VUFO-NGO Resource Centre Newsletter for October 1 - 15, 2009!

Following recent devastations caused by the typhoon Ketsana, which swept through several central provinces of Vietnam, the People's Aid Coordinating Committee (PACCOM) and VUFO-NGO Resource Centre are seeking your support in providing assistance to the regions affected by the typhoon. Please follow the updates on the VUFO-NGO Resource Centre's website http://www.ngocentre.org.vn/ and read more about Ketsana's impact in the letter from the PACCOM's Director General. Please dowload the letter below.

There are two Working Group meetings taking place in the coming period: WildLife Trade Working Group on 9 October (14:00 hrs) and Ethnic Minorities Working Group on 14 October (10:00 hrs). Both meetings will take place at the VUFO-NGO Resource Centre. Please check our calendar section for more events.

Warm greetings from the VUFO-NGO Resource Centre's Team!
