Gender Responsive Equitable Agriculture and Tourism (GREAT)
The Gender Responsive Equitable Agriculture and Tourism (GREAT) program is a flagship initiative funded by the Australian Government and managed by Cowater International. Phase 1 of GREAT ran from 2017-2022, and Phase 2 (GREAT 2) will run from 2022-2027 with a total funding of AUD 67.4 million from the Australian Government.
The Provincial People’s Committees of Son La and Lao Cai provinces are the Program’s key counterparts. Within each province, a Project Management Unit (PMU) works collaboratively with Cowater International to provide an essential coordination and liaison role for program implementation.
