Denmark and Sweden to finance Vietnam’s judicial reform
According to the cooperation agreement, Denmark will act on behalf of Sweden to work with the Vietnamese government and other partners in implementing the largest programme of its kind in Vietnam to date.
The programme, which will start in 2010 and cover a five-year period, will focus on capacity building to implement judicial reforms by way of assisting both state institutions and non-state actors with a mechanism for promoting dialogue with key decision makers.
The programme will be jointly supported by Denmark, Sweden and the European Commission, with the Danish contribution accounting for 78.7 million DKK (or 10.57 million EUR).
