Evidence snapshot for Vietnam
Vietnam has implemented multiple evidence-based programmes targeting poverty reduction and gender equity. Microfinance through the Vietnam Women's Union has disbursed ~1.5 million loans to rural women, while the Vietnam Urban Upgrading Project directly benefited over 700,000 urban poor and issued 95,000 micro-loans. On gender and property rights, Vietnam's Land Law requiring joint spousal land-use certificates is associated with 10.4% higher per-capita expenditure and a 5-6% fall in poverty incidence, though actual implementation remains limited (only 7% of rice-plot titles carried both names years after the policy). In political representation, 203 of 300 women supported in commune elections were elected (68% success rate), contributing to women reaching 30.26% of the National Assembly by 2021.
