This illustration presents findings from a research project on monetary and multidimensional child poverty in Vietnam based on survey data from the Government Statistical Office (GSO) from 2004, 2006 and 2008 and discussions with 78 children and 145 adults in Mekong River Delta Region in October 2013.
This research tries to understand why some children may lack basic needs such as food or shelter or access to services including education and health despite living in a relatively wealthy family or why other children who live in families with little income are able to go to school or have good living conditions.
