The collection of reliable poverty data began in 1992, when an estimated 58 percent of the population lived in poverty. The most recent estimates from 2008 indicate that 14.5 percent of the population remains in poverty. According to Oxfam, Vietnam's record equates to 6000 people moving out of poverty every day for sixteen years. This report draws on this extensive background literature and as well as more recent meetings with a range of stakeholders who have participated in or observed World Bank-government collaborations on poverty reduction. It is a companion piece to the Government's partnership report 'the World Bank in companion with Vietnam on development path' for the celebration. The report highlights some key achievements of the partnership over the past two decades as well as future challenges. It is divided into five sections: poverty monitoring, poverty analysis, strategic planning for poverty reduction, partnerships in policy for poverty reduction, and partnerships in investments for poverty reduction.
