This report examines the lives of poor
men, women, and children and explores the constraints and
opportunities they face today in rising out of poverty. It
builds on a rich body of poverty analysis and an excellent
base of knowledge from previous reports and aims to do three
things. First, it proposes revisions to Vietnam's
poverty monitoring system - via better data, updated welfare
aggregates, and new poverty lines - to bring these more in
line with economic and social conditions in present-day
Vietnam. Second, it revisits the stylized facts about
deprivation and poverty in Vietnam, and develops an updated
profile of poverty using data from the 2010 Vietnam
Household Living Standards Survey (VHLSS) and new
qualitative field studies. Third, it analyzes some of the
key challenges for poverty reduction in the next decade,
including changing regional patterns of poverty and wealth,
high and persistent poverty among ethnic minorities, and
rising inequality in outcomes and opportunities. |
