Viet Nam is one of the first countries in the world to publish publications on SDG indicator 2.4.1. Viet Nam plans to add SDG indicator 2.4.1 to the Viet Nam National Statistical Indicator System with the evaluation cycle of every 5 years. This is also an effort of the Statistics Sector in particular and

GSO hopes this publication will meet the information needs for monitoring, management, direction, administration, planning, policy making, research, project development, and implementation of action plans for governments, localities, domestic and international organizations, and individuals, as well as suggest practical solutions to accelerate the progress of implementation of sustainable development goals. In addition, GSO also looks forward to receiving valuable comments from readers to continuously finalize and improve the methodology and data quality as well.
