This poverty analysis is an important first step in the development of a new five-year country strategy for Vietnam. Its aim is to inform the process of identifying appropriate objectives, areas of focus, delivery mechanisms and performance indicators. To this end, the analysis draws on existing data and research to identify who the poor are, where they are located, and why they are poor. It discusses the Government of Vietnam's poverty reduction policies and the relevant programs of other donors. Drawing on all this, it suggests some elements of an analytical framework that can guide the choice of donor activities to support poverty reduction, and offers some ideas on directions and issues for the new strategy.
