Issues in Adolescent Reproductive Health Care in Vietnam: What Could We Do?
Abstract: Issues in adolescent reproductive health (ARH), for example unsafe sex, abortion, RTIs, are not simply health-related matters such as the lack of knowledge and skills in caring and protecting ARH. They are often originated from broader social issues, and once established, they in turns result in not only reproductive health but also more complicated psychological and social consequences. By reviewing various studies on ARH in Vietnam, this paper aims at generalizing remarkable issues in ARH care and its social aspects. Based on that, it suggests some recommendations from social work perspective to improve adolescent reproductive health care in Vietnam, with an emphasis on supporting disadvatanged groups.
Sex Selective Abortion in Vietnam: Practice and Policy
Abstract: Since 2003 the Vietnam government has launched prohibitions forbidding sex determination and sex selective abortions. However, between 2009 and 2014 the SRB increases from 110.6 to 112.2. So, how have public regulations prohibiting sex selective abortions been practiced in Vietnam's health sector? Is there any insufficiency in these regulations? Are the bans effective in stopping sex selective abortion?
This study conducted in 2009. The data include observations; interviews with 35 women seeking ultrasound scans and abortion at an obstetrical and gynecological hospital; interviews with doctors providing the ultrasound and abortion services; and interviews with managers and policy-makers on reproductive health.
In Vietnam, prohibitions forbidding sex determination and sex selective abortion already exist but are not consistently or strictly enforced. To date, the bans do not appear to be effective in stopping sex selection. The loose management and supervision in providing and using reproductive health services as well as commercialized health care have created space for practicing sex determination, followed by sex selective abortion. It is recommended to improve ethic ideals among providers and have broad social measures to improve the status of women.
Abstract: As a result of socio-economic and cultural changes after the renovation, getting married to foreigners has been more acceptable since 1990 in Vietnam. This cross-border marriage has steadily increased over years, especially Vietnam-Taiwan and Vietnam-Korea marriages. By 2013, there were about 50,000 Vietnamese brides living in Korea, and more than 100,000 in Taiwan. From 2013 on, similar numbers of Vietnamese women moved to China with family union visas. The increase in marriage migration raises a number of important issues for the sending places. It has considerable consequences for the make-up of population and other social issues in origin areas. The number of divorced ladies coming back with their children has steadily increased. Their living experiences after divorce in the mother land is also a matter of concern. This paper uses the data from research conducted by University of Social Sciences and Humanities in 2015 in Vinh Long Province, funded by Vietnam National University in HCMC, conducted with 450 households after their daughters got married to foreigners. The study includes 30 in-depth interviews with the returnees and their children, to present the pattern of cross-border marriages in this area as well as their impact on the sending communities. It also tries to discuss the policy implications of the findings and includes recommendations for policy changes.
Unpaid Care Work - Issues and Suggestions for Vietnam
Abstract: Although unpaid care work are vital for people’s well-being and the functioning of the market economy, they remain invisible. Globally, the burden of combining productive and reproductive work has negative consequences on women’s lives, including limiting economic opportunities and power within households. One of the key targets of the Sustainable Development Goal 5 is to “recognize and value unpaid care and domestic work through the provision of public services, infrastructure and social protection policies and the promotion of shared responsibilities within the households and the family as nationally appropriate”. Viet Nam’s National Strategy for Gender Equality 2011-2020 includes a target to reduce women’s time involvement in household duties under its objective to ensure gender equality in family life. Based on the desk review, this discussion paper aims to provide evidences on impacts of unpaid care burden on women’s development and current issues in Viet Nam’s context, thereby, contribute to public debates on policy design in Viet Nam.
Happiness and the Need to Study Happiness in Vietnam
Abstract: Happiness is a universally-accepted socio-cultural value. All 193 United Nations member states, including Vietnam, have adopted a resolution calling for a higher priority to be placed on happiness and established the 20th of March as the annual International Day of Happiness. Across the world, happiness has been an increasingly popular subject of empirical research; however in Vietnam, the subject of happiness remains largely unexplored in academic research. This article focuses on the concept of happiness, cultural differences in happiness, the applications of happiness study, the need for happiness study, and the measurement of happiness among Vietnamese people.
