Pho Yen: Improvement of the health care and living conditions of unmarried women
Background
Socio-economic conditions in Vietnam are especially problematic for unmarried women (single mothers, widows, divorced and childless women). They have generally not benefited from the economical and social boom in Vietnam and live primarily in rural areas in the North of the country, marginalised by society. In the Pho Yen district the rate of unmarried women is significantly high.
