E-Directory LAO-CSO Eng.Pdf PREFACE With the need for better connected and coordinated actions among development stakeholders who are implementing development projects in Laos, this directory aims to provide stakeholders with access to information about the availability of Civil Society Organisations in Laos. It has been collected and developed to assist Non Profit Associations, International Non-Governmental Organizations, Donors, GoL and other stakeholders in Laos in their search for appropriate information and implementing partners. We hope that this publication can also assist development actors in building new, or strengthening existing relationship in support of their common development goals. This is the third version of the Directory of Lao CSOs produced following a widespread demand. The design has been adapted in response to feedback from the users of previous versions. Version three is more concise and the book is smaller in size to be handier to carry. All CSOs known to the Lao CSO Network have been invited to have their information included. Some organisations have chosen not to be included. For more information on a specific organisation, we invite you to contact directly the management team of the organisation. On-going and regular update of CSO information can be found though visiting the website and the PDF document can be free download on the website (www.laocs-kis.org). We would like to thank French Embassy for providing the necessary financial support for this publication. Our warm thanks to Lao CSOs Network for the data collection work and to CSOs who provided their organisational information for this directory. With further demand and continued input from the CSO community we hope to develop and expand this collection of information further in the future. Sincerely, The Civil Society Working group Secretariat 30 August 2017 INDEX Information DECA - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 34 ECCDA - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 36 Development EEFA -

  • Simulation of Supply/Demand Balance
    The Study on Power Network System Master Plan in Lao PDR Draft Final Report (Stage 3) Simulation of Supply/Demand Balance 17.1. Options for Power Development Plan up to 2030 In order to examine supply reliability and supply-demand balance based on the Lao PDR’s development situation, and considering the development status of the country’s power supply facilities and transmission facilities, a simulation is conducted for 2030. Laos’s power system is examined up to 2030 considering the demand situation in the domestic system and the expansion plans for transmission lines. The northern and central 1 areas are put together to form a Laos NC system, the central 2 a Laos C system, and the southern part an S system. Based on the results of the supply/demand balance simulations, we make recommendations for power plant expansion plans and transmission lines, and for interconnections with neighboring countries. Power Development Plan for Laos’ domestic system up to 2030 1. Power plants for analysis of supply/demand balance in Laos In examining the supply/demand balance for domestic demand in Laos up to 2030, we use the power plan approved by the MEM Minister (see Table 17.1-1).

  • Rra Report Attapeu Watershed Attapeu
    Page 1 of 9 ADB RETA 5771 Poverty Reduction & Environmental Management in Remote Greater Mekong Subregion Watersheds Project (Phase I) RRA REPORT ATTAPEU WATERSHED ATTAPEU & CHAMPASSACK PROVINCE, LAO PDR Special Report By Latsamay Sylavong 1. General Background Attapeu watershed is located in the Southern part of Lao PDR. This watershed is covered in 2 provinces as the whole of Attapeu province and a small part of Champassack provinces (the Plateau Boloven). There are about 900 Kilometres from Vientiane Municipality and 180 kilometres from Pakse. Access to those 4 villages differs from one to another village due to the selection criteria for the RRA survey in order to cover the main ethnic minorities in the watershed area. It is found easy access to 2 villages of Champassack province (Boloven Plateau) for both seasons and very difficult to get to other 2 villages of Attapeu province, especially during raining season. The purpose of this survey is to describe the existing agroecosystems within the watershed area as the relationship to the use of forest resource by human population. In addition, Attapeu watershed is one of the shortlist watersheds priorities in Lao PDR. In the Attapeu watershed 4 villages were studied and detailed information of demographic survey in different ethnic villages as Nha Heune, Alak, Laven and Chung.
