Situation Analysis of the rights of Persons with Disabilities in Viet Nam

The United Nations Partnership on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities Multi-Partner Trust Fund (UNPRPD MPTF) is a unique partnership that brings together United Nations (UN) entities, governments, organizations of persons with disabilities (OPDs), and broader civil society to advance the implementation of the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD) and disability-inclusive Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) at the country level around the world.

From March to August 2021, the Viet Nam UNCT conducted the comprehensive situational analysis. The methodology included a desk review of relevant literature, key informant interviews and focus groups, stakeholder mapping exercises, and consultative workshops with key stakeholders. 

The Country Brief and report feature critical gaps in disability policies and practices, and opportunities around preconditions to the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities implementation.
