Young Lives Round 2 Survey Report: Vietnam (Executive summary)

This report presents initial findings from the second round of the Young Lives household and child survey which was carried out between late 2006 and early 2007. It provides a broad outline of some key child poverty indicators, as well as changes that have taken place since the first round of research in 2002. The data show that while Vietnam has enjoyed growth and poverty reduction in recent years – and some Young Lives households have become better off – inequalities remain between those in urban and rural areas and between the ethnic majority and minority groups.

Identification of Independent Predictors for Underweight and Overweight in Adolescents with Overweight Mothers

Background: The nutrition and epidemiologic transition is characterised by changes in diet and activity patterns, leading to the development of a double burden of malnutrition. At the household level this often manifests as an overweight mother and underweight child. However, child and adolescent overweight and obesity also appear to be on the rise in transitional countries, although it is not well studied. Parent and child overweight are associated, and overweight children have a greater risk of becoming overweight adults.

Children’s Well-Being in Contexts of Poverty: Approaches to Research, Monitoring and Participation

Monitoring, protecting and promoting ‘well-being’ are central to realisation of children’s rights. Yet definitions of the concept are both variable and can appear conceptually confused. Competing research paradigms engage with the concept and its measurement, while applications of well-being in policy are equally contested. This paper outlines some of the major debates, as a starting point for reviewing three contrasting approaches to well-being: indicator-based, participatory and longitudinal research.
