SUMMARY OF THE PROJECT
The Gender Responsive Equitable Agriculture and Tourism (GREAT) Program is a flagship initiative of the Australian Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade (DFAT).  The Program promotes sustainable women’s economic empowerment (WEE) in the ethnically diverse north-west region of Vietnam by applying a market systems development (MSD) approach. The primary beneficiaries are women living in the provinces of Son La and Lao Cai, while an overarching emphasis is placed on the inclusion of women from ethnic minority communities.
 
The Program is in its second five-year (2022-2027), AUD 33.7 million, phase (GREAT 2) continuing its focus on agriculture and tourism - sectors that lend themselves to opportunities for advancing WEE. The Program works with multiple private and public sector stakeholders to address constraints, generate opportunities, drive market growth and increase the productive value of the sectors. Cross-sector strategies such as women’s leadership, access to finance, digital transformation, policy advocacy, climate change adaptation and mitigation, and social norm and behaviour change inform and complement sector interventions.
 
The Program works in close collaboration and coordination with provincial government agencies to ensure alignment with national and provincial Government of Vietnam plans and goals.
