description This fact sheet presents findings from the fifth round of the Young Lives survey of children in Viet Nam in late 2016. Young Lives is a longitudinal study on childhood poverty that has followed two cohorts of children born seven years apart since 2002 (an Older Cohort born in 1994-95 and a Younger Cohort born in 2001-02). This fact sheet presents preliminary findings showing that the living conditions of Young Lives households have improved since 2002, especially for the most disadvantaged groups, but not for all equally. Environmental and economic vulnerability might have been a reason for certain groups to remain poor. Some important differences in education and health are presented. The mothers of the Young Lives children were born either in war time or in the decade preceding the economic renewal of Doi Moi; their children have grown up enjoying better nutrition, health care, and educational services in the post-Doi Moi era.
