Mission Statement
Coalition for Environment and Development (CED) is a Finnish non-governmental organisation founded in 1987. CED focuses on finding solutions to climate overheating and inequality. CED combines poverty eradication and environmental protection. Protecting the environment at the cost of people losing their sources of living is not sustainable. Also the environment has to be taken into account when creating sustainable jobs. CED works in Vietnam, Mexico, Brazil, India, Pakistan, Nepal, Kenya and countries in South Africa.
History of operations in Vietnam
CED has actively worked in Vietnam since 1996. First, in co-operation with the Finnish Vietnamese Friendship Association (FVFA) and DEVAID Finland to support the Co-operation With Women In Vietnam Program in Soc Son district, Hanoi province and Cao Phong district, Hoa Binh province. Later, CED has expanded it's field of activity and place of work to other communes and districts. At the moment, CED works in Hanoi, Bac Giang, Hoa Binh, Hung Yen and Phu Tho provinces.
