  7. Pros vs. Con Favourable circumstances: • Rich national data sets • VLSS 1993, 1998, 2002, 2004, 2006 (some data) • MICS II (2001), MICS III (2006); • Population census 1999, pop. survey 2006 • National health survey 2003 & other surveys • Some existing studies on children, poverty. • High goverment’s commitment, cooperation of experts of ministries.

  8. Pros vs. Con Difficulties: • The guideline seems too ambitious (data, correlation analysis) with a given limited time. • Unsuitable timing: • UNICEF: MTR process, Child poverty index at the same time • Counterparts: over committed/overload with govt.’s agenda e.g. VHLSS’08 • Data: • Availability e.g. no data of many indicators (budget data for children, disaggregated level) • Quality / accuracy / compatibility (diff. definition/calculation, unreliable adm. data) • Accessibility (data from various sources) • Data on children aged 16 (Vietnam) vs. aged 18 (CRC)
