As part of the 2026–2030 foreign NGO aid mobilization plan, DAFO formalized cooperation with six partners, including Habitat for Humanity International and the Social Assistance Program for Vietnam (U.S.); Korea Food for the Hungry International and Share Sarangbat (Republic of Korea); Activity International (the Netherlands); and Catalyste+ (Canada).
The funding will support initiatives in clean water and sanitation, housing, education, healthcare, disability assistance, livelihood development, disaster preparedness, and the deployment of international specialists and volunteers.
The agreements are expected to broaden Da Nang’s international cooperation network while reflecting the shared commitment of foreign NGOs to community development, sustainable growth, and social welfare in the locality.
In the first round in October 2025, DAFO signed agreements with three foreign NGOs worth 62.5 billion VND (2.37 million USD).
