From Land Portal website article about SDG 17: Partnerships which said that the partnership between VFI and Stora Enso Laos is also supporting SDG 5 on gender equality and empowering women and girls. Communications tools were developed in ethnic languages specifically for women to be better informed (since women in ethnic groups are less likely to speak Lao language), and to ensure women’s participation in decision-making at all levels (indicator 5.5), particularly land-related decisions.
