#sustainable poverty reduction

The programme consolidates four existing national target programmes covering cultural development; education and training modernisation; new-style rural development, sustainable poverty reduction and socio-economic development in ethnic minority and mountainous areas; and healthcare, population and development.

A string of measures have been carried out in the Mekong Delta province of Tra Vinh to realize the National Target Program on Sustainable Poverty Reduction.

The National Assembly heard explanations presented by two ministers on policies for ethnic minorities and mountainous regions, and the environmental impacts of power plants, among other issues, at the November 3 morning session.
