Action On Poverty (Aop) in Vietnam

Established in 1968 as The Australian Foundation for the Peoples of Asia and the Pacific Limited (AFAP), our organisation has recently adopted a new name – Action on Poverty (AOP). AOP is a fully-accredited, secular Australian organisation that empowers local changemakers to break the cycle of entrenched poverty in their communities. For nearly 50 years, AOP has successfully worked with local partners to implement cost-effective development programs in 20 countries across Africa, Asia and the Pacific.

AOP in Vietnam has been working with poor communities in 9 provinces across the country since 1989 and became registered in Vietnam in 1996. Our program focuses on improving health, income generation, good governance, social monitoring, food security and resilience to the effects of climate change. AOP has developed a solid reputation as a principled, innovative, and pioneering NGO working with a wide spectrum of stakeholders ranging from policy makers and local authorities to civil society organisations (CSOs) and vulnerable communities.

Action on Poverty is committed to welcoming people from the widest possible diversity of backgrounds, culture and experience. We will make any practical adjustments to enable people with a disability to participate fully in an inclusive working environment.
Please let us know if you have a disability and require any special assistance in making your application or attending an interview.
Note: Action on Poverty is a child safe organisation. Action on Poverty’s recruitment and selection procedures reflect our commitment to the safety of children in all our activities. Criminal record checks will be undertaken of the successful applicant.
