Vietnam
The Challenge
In 2004, Vietnam ranked as one of the world’s 25 poorest countries with a per capita income of $553. The majority of the poor live in rural areas with limited access to credit, productive assets, or quality social services. HIV/AIDS and other infectious diseases pose a special challenge to sustainable development. Vietnam’s accelerated economic growth has directly led to increased stress on the country’s natural resources, biodiversity, and air/water quality. USAID’s country-specific activities in Vietnam focus on accelerating the transition to a more open, market-based economy while improving access to services for selected vulnerable groups. USAID's Regional Development Mission/Asia (RDM/A) manages these activities funded at $1.98 million ESF and $2.818 million DA in FY 2006 and $1.0 million ESF and $2.44 million DA in FY 2007. Please see RDM/A's Congressional Budget Justification for additional information on these activities.
