Addressing social issues to meet the requirements of sustainable development in Vietnam

Abstract

In the context of rapid and sustainable development, Vietnam is grappling with many social challenges that necessitate comprehensive and effective solutions. Among the most pressing issues are income inequality, rising unemployment, disparities in access to healthcare and education, and the urgent need to ensure social security for all population segments. To effectively tackle these challenges, Vietnam needs to enhance its social security policies, promote innovation across various sectors, and encourage the active participation of all stakeholders in society. Strengthening state governance is also critical in this endeavor. A pivotal aspect of achieving holistic and sustainable prosperity lies in establishing a robust social development framework that harmonizes economic growth with social progress while prioritizing equity and social advancement. This research employs qualitative and quantitative methodologies to rigorously evaluate existing outcomes, identify underlying limitations, and propose actionable solutions. By addressing these current social issues head-on, the aim is to pave the way for sustainable development in Vietnam, ensuring that growth benefits all members of society and contributes to a more equitable future.
