ABOUT US The Center of Research and Community Inclusive Support (CORMIS) was established in January 2018 under the management of the Da Nang Union of Science and Technology Associations. We are dedicated to building inclusive communities where everyone—especially those who have been marginalized—can participate fully, release stress and tension, build resilience, and thrive.
Our Purpose CORMIS works alongside communities, partners, and stakeholders to create sustainable solutions that empower marginalized groups through research, education, direct support, and wellness practices. We believe that true empowerment requires both inclusion and wellbeing—everyone deserves the opportunity to contribute their unique abilities, participate in decisions that affect their lives, and access practices that support their mental and physical health.
Through our integrated approach to stress and tension release, environmental sustainability, education, and disaster preparedness, we address the interconnected challenges facing vulnerable communities in Vietnam.
Vision By 2030, to be the model for holistic community development in Vietnam—where stress release and trauma healing, environmental action, education, and disaster resilience work together to create communities where no one is left behind and everyone can thrive.
Mission With commitment to empowerment, inclusion, and collective resilience at our core, we research, develop, and implement community-driven solutions that strengthen capabilities and improve quality of life for marginalized people in Vietnam. Through integrated programs in mental wellness and stress release, environmental sustainability and dignified work, capacity-building education, and disaster risk reduction, we train local facilitators, support community initiatives, and build networks of care that enable vulnerable populations to access healing, participate in decisions, and build sustainable futures.
