Our Work
Rosa-Luxemburg-Stiftung Hanoi office is implementing projects across Southeast Asia aimed at strengthening political education and international solidarity. We work with state and non-state partners such as universities, think tanks, research and educational institutions as well as other stakeholders. Since its inception, RLS Hanoi office has been striving for Social Justice and the assertion of social rights. We also emphasize the urgency of Social-Ecological-Transformations, as the Mekong region and maritime Southeast Asia are especially vulnerable to the escalating environmental crises. Apart from that, we work towards strengthening International Dialogue between Germany, Europe and the countries of the Indo-Pacific. In Vietnam and Laos, we also support the exchange and experience sharing on questions related to Socialism in the 21st Century. Below you will find some of the projects, we have realized with our partners over the past years.
