Organization profile


Every year, millions of people around the world go missing as a result of conflict, human rights abuses, disasters, organized crime, irregular migration, and other causes.

Be part of a growing international organization that is dedicated to tackling this global challenge.

The International Commission on Missing Persons (ICMP) is a treaty-based international organization with headquarters in The Hague, the Netherlands. Its mandate is to secure the cooperation of governments and others in locating missing persons.

As the only international organization tasked exclusively to work on the issue of missing persons, ICMP maintains field programs throughout the world.

Vietnam Project

Through its project in Vietnam, ICMP will work with the Vietnamese Government to improve institutional capacity to develop and sustain an effective DNA-based system to locate and identify missing persons from the Vietnam-American war.

The project will provide advanced DNA extraction and testing methods adapted to the Vietnam context and implemented in Vietnam; support a long-term strategy in coordination with the government to enhance the efficacy and efficiency of human identification efforts in the context of the Vietnam-American War, and provide training and capacity building efforts in the area of human identification.


This is a Senior Program Coordinator position in a program funded by the US Agency for International Development (USAID) that will help Vietnamese government (GVN) partners to strengthen key components needed for large-scale, DNA-based identifications of missing persons from the Vietnam-American war including a centralized data system, civil society engagement, family reference genetic sample (FRS) outreach, the collection, recovery and forensic examination of mortal remains, and DNA identification.

Recognizing the inherent limitations of the standard DNA testing that has been applied to date in Vietnam, the program will work in concert with GVN partners to adapt proven methods of DNA extraction to the Vietnamese context and establish a foundation for the use and implementation of next generation DNA sequencing technologies and integrated data management systems.
