Dear colleagues,

The Capacity Development Working Group (CDWG) welcomes you to join our 
next discussion forum entitled:

Working Together:  How can the not for profit enterprises partner with 
private companies to improve social outcomes in Vietnam?

The forum will be held at: VUFO-NGO Resource Center (La Thanh Hotel, Doi 
Can, Hanoi)

On Thursday 11 April 2013 from 9:00am to 11:30am

Please see attached a printable copy of our agenda for the day and below 
a brief description of the event.

/How can the not for profit enterprises partner with private companies 
to improve social outcomes in Vietnam?/

Given the overlap in stakeholders and objectives, there seems to exist 
an opportunity for not-for-profit

organizations (NPOs) to work with socially responsible enterprises.  But 
what is the best way to approach such collaborations?

When are collaborations more or less effective?  What assets are key for 
each player to bring to the table?

NPOs are diverse in terms of their missions, strategies, methods and 
organizational forms and, quite appropriately, there

are contrasting views about the appropriate goals, strategies, and 
tactics for working with for-profit enterprises.

The Capacity Development Working Group is inviting Vietnam based 
experts, representing different approaches, to

come and talk about the potential the for-profit sector has to help 
build the capacity of local NPOs.
