- Description
- U.S. relations with Vietnam have increased dramatically in the past decade as the Vietnamese society has opened and the economy has developed at a rate among the highest in the world. Environment, Science, Technology and Health are important and growing elements to this relationship. This will only increase as science and technology become more important in the economy and as environmental challenges increase accordingly. The choice of Vietnam as a focus country in the President?s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief illustrates the importance of global health as a U.S. Mission goal. As a result of these trends, it is vital to establish an ESTH office to support the Ambassador in these sectors. The ESTH Officer reports on and coordinates science, technology, environmental and health issues with the Government of Vietnam (GVN) and among mission elements such as the U.S. Asia Environmental Partnership (USAEP), the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the Foreign Agricultural Service, Health and Human Services, and U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), as well as with the Economic Section and the Consulate General in Ho Chi Minh City. A major responsibility of the ESTH officer is to support the Ambassador?s oversight of PEPFAR. S/he coordinates the work of the Ambassador's policy group on ?Agent Orange?.
