SUMMARY:Capacity Building Support to the Ministry of Labour and Social Welfare: Study Tour to Vietnam
DESCRIPTION:Date: 18 -22 May 2015\nVenue: Hanoi\, Vietnam\nA number of countries in ASEAN\, including Vietnam\, have initiated new social protection policies and programmes which are generating new learning on best practice for implementing social protection in low- and middle-income countries. \nThe Laos Social Protection Conference\, which was hosted by the Government of Lao People’s Democratic Republic (GOL) in February\, has created more interest social protection issue among relevant government agencies. Two speakers from the government agency and academic institute in Vietnam participated in the event and shared the Vietnam experience. Laos and Vietnam have already been in regular exchange learning on different policy issues .The Ministry of Labour and Social Welfare (MLSW) is now keen to further learn and discuss the social protection with the government of Vietnam\, and to apply to development of social protection in the country. \nLearning through sharing experience between countries is one of the most effective ways for capacity building on different areas of development. Therefore\, a series of study tour on social protection to ASEAN countries and beyond was included as one of the key activities to enhance capacity on social protection strategy for GoL staff\, and the first one is a visit to Vietnam. \nThe study tour aims to provide an opportunity for GoL staff to expose and learn about different social protection policies and programmes in Vietnam. It will focus on non-contributory social assistance and productive safety nets in the context of a life cycle approach. This is because it is relatively underdeveloped in Laos\, and Vietnam has wealth of experience to share.

SUMMARY:ROK-ASEAN Regional Conference on Community-based Services for Older Persons
DESCRIPTION:Date: 26-29 May 2015\nVenue: Siem Reap\, Cambodia\nThe proportion and number of population of older persons in ASEAN has been increasing consistently due to rising life expectancy and falling fertility rates. With this increasing ageing population\, there is a growing need for welfare and health services for older persons because of vulnerability and chronic diseases in old age. \nTo respond to the needs of ASEAN Member Countries\,  HelpAge Korea has implemented a project titled “Community based Services for Older Persons” since July 2013. The project aims to develop community-based service model in collaboration with a focal point of partner organisations in CLMV countries and to contribute to regional efforts in addressing care and support needs of older people suffered from non-communicable diseases (NCDs). \nAs the project will come to an end in June 2015\, HelpAge Korea in collaboration with HelpAge EAPRO will hold a regional conference on community-based services for older persons on 26-29 May 2015 in Cambodia.The conference will cordially invite one representative from Ministry of Social Welfare\, Ministry of Health and NGO each in 10 ASEAN Member Countries. The main objectives are to share the outcomes of the above-mentioned regional project implementation with 10 ASEAN Member Countries and to develop policy recommendations on Community based Services for Older Persons.
