This study focuses on assessing the progress towards SDGs in terms of the People aspect in Viet Nam by provincial level over the years. We quantify the implementation of the sustainable goals with respect to the People pillar in 25 provinces in Northern Vietnam over the last decade. The research results show that, in general, there has been much progress in the last many years. However, the performances are uneven across provinces. There is a large gap between the provinces in the Northern key industrial economic zone (NKEZ) and the mountainous areas. The results of this research can contribute to the development of a monitoring program, providing the information needed for policymakers to make decisions and develop policies that are appropriate and effective to achieve those sustainable development goals for industrial development in Vietnam.
Improving quality of life (QOL) is an important objective. This study measured the QOL of farmers in rural areas in Vietnam using the WHOQOL-BREF. 600 farmers from 5 provinces in Vietnam participated in the study. Farmers reported low QOL, with psychological dimension had the highest QOL score and environmental dimension had lowest QOL. Male, young, well-educated, married, healthy farmers and farmers who had average living standard, living in small families, living with having less than 3 working members, and have savings were more likely to have higher QOL. However, only 3 factors predicted QOL: education, living standard and number of working members. Implications on Vietnamese family culture and the role of agriculture in modern society were discussed.
