| Description du stage : |
Information about the Development Project The FCM Municipal Partnership Program (MPP) in Asia currently supports 4 Municipal Partnerships between Canadian municipalities and Vietnamese local governments. Each one of these municipal partnerships is at a different stage in its implementation. The themes of the four partnerships are: 1) Census data collection and analysis for improved municipal services delivery; 2) Tourism planning and development through public participation; 3) Urban development and environmental protection; 4) Land-use management and land taxation. With the expert guidance of FCM and the ACVN, the Canadian and Vietnamese municipal partners have identified issues, areas of cooperation, planned activities and expected results for their municipal capacity building projects. Project activities include missions of local municipal practitioners to Canada and Vietnam as well as support activities which may include study tours or the participation of municipal practitioners in training. Description of the Internship In Canada While the focus of the internship is on the overseas component, the intern usually spends two or three weeks working from the FCM headquarters in Ottawa. The intern's time in Ottawa will be devoted to introducing the intern to the work of FCM in Canada and overseas, and to prepare the intern for the overseas assignment. In-Canada activities will include pre-departure briefing and cultural orientation, review of project documentation, final travel logistics and meetings with Canadian project team members to discuss project activities and the overall approach to international development. Where practical, meetings with former interns who have traveled to the country under the Canadian Institute of Planners program will also be arranged. Overseas The intern will be primarily responsible for assisting in the development, coordination, delivery, and evaluation of project-related initiatives undertaken as part of FCM's portfolio of activities in Vietnam. Supported by the International Youth Internship Program of the Canadian International Development Agency Internship duties Specific Internship duties will include: - Acting as a liaison between FCM and the ACVN on projects and project related activities; - Assisting FCM with the coordination and implementation of capacity-building activities with the ACVN and Vietnamese municipal partners; - Assisting the ACVN with the organization of project activities in Vietnam (i.e. study tours and workshops); - Accompanying Canadian delegations on missions in Vietnam as and when requested by FCM; - Supporting FCM and ACVN to undertake research on key urban development problems facing Vietnamese cities - Preparing the necessary reporting documentation for the development of local projects; - Helping to monitor FCM projects in Vietnam with the ACVN and to prepare and provide project reports as requested; and - Maintaining a daily log of activities that will assist in the development of a final intern project report. FCM will provide important in-kind contributions to help the intern carry out his/her assigned duties and to expand his/her exposure to the work of FCM with the aim of increasing his/her professional development. FCM and ACVN officers will provide the intern with training sessions on their institution's procedure, projects and systems. The intern will be expected to work with minimal direct supervision, at times that are not consistent with traditional working patterns, and in varying situations that will require sound judgment and initiative. Management and Reporting The intern will be managed from Canada by Kristin Marinacci, Regional Coordinator, Asia, FCM; and in Vietnam by Mr. Nguyen Lan, Secretary General, Association of Cities of Vietnam (ACVN). |
