Recently, the Protections and Choice for Marginalized Urban Women in Vientiane Capital, Champasack and Savannakhet provinces, Phase III of CARE International in Lao PDR has successfully built the Village Saving and Loans Associations (VSLA) for female migrant workers, including both those who have returned to their hometowns and those who want to find work in other places in Savannakhet Province. This aims to gain their knowledge, skills, and capacity in financial management. The project is funded by the joint ILO-UN Women Safe and Fair Programme as part of the EU-UN Spotlight Initiative.
