The Hanoitimes - Assistance
from international non-governmental organizations (NGOs) is of great
significance in achieving the targets set in the national strategy for
protecting and improving public health from 2010-2020, with a vision for 2030,
a health official has said.
The statement was made by
Nguyen Viet Tien, Deputy Minister of Health, at a two-day meeting with NGOs in
Hanoi.
Addressing the meeting, chief
representative of UNICEF in Vietnam, Lotta Sylwander, said NGOs should boost
their activities and aim to increase the number of local people with access to
healthcare services.
Sylwander said that, though the
country has gained many achievements in health care over the past 15 years,
there remains inequality in access to medical services, especially among ethnic
minority groups, and the rural and urban poor.
It is estimated that more than
100 international NGOs are contributing to improving Vietnam’s health care
sector through 450 programs and projects in a variety of fields.
