Summary: | In the 1990s, the Socialist Republic of
Vietnam formulated a new policy, strategy, and program to
meet the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) and national
targets to improve rural water supply and sanitation. While
progress in water supply increased rapidly, progress in
sanitation lagged behind. By 1998, just 24 percent of rural
Vietnamese households had sanitary toilets, placing the
achievement of MDG targets for sanitation by 2015 at risk.
The study provides valuable insights to practitioners
working on projects related to sanitation marketing. |
