IDE - International Development Enterprises (Vietnam)

iDE creates income and livelihood opportunities for poor, rural households. People who are poor have the right to a secure livelihood. Markets are the most powerful force for significant, widespread and lasting impact on rural prosperity. The rural poor are customers, producers, and entrepreneurs. We listen to and learn from the people we work with. We value innovation and entrepreneurship. We are results-oriented, aiming for significant impacts for large numbers of people. We strive for economic, social, and environmental equity and sustainability.

Working closely with the Vietnamese government, iDE has been using a market-based approach to increase the incomes of the poor since 1991, addressing agricultural challenges as well as expanding markets for sanitation.

How We Do It: AGRICULTURE, WASH, RESILIENCE TO CLIMATE CHANGE, GENDER EQUITY.
