O que funciona em Vietnã

The evidence shows Vietnam has implemented targeted interventions to reduce poverty and increase women's economic and political participation. Microfinance programmes have disbursed approximately 1.5 million loans to rural women through the Vietnam Women's Union, with a World Bank-backed rural finance programme financing ~10,000 jobs (35% to women borrowers), though rigorous randomised evidence of poverty reduction remains limited. Land titling reform requiring both spouses' names on certificates is associated with a 10.4% rise in household spending and a 5–6% fall in poverty incidence, though implementation remains incomplete—only 7% of rice-plot titles actually carried both names as of 2015. Political representation efforts supported 300 women candidates in commune elections with a 68% success rate, and women reached 30.26% of National Assembly seats in 2021, crossing a 30% threshold for the first time.
