This working paper examines how gender affects the trajectories of girls and boys in Vietnam through school, work and marriage, from childhood, through adolescence and into early adulthood. It explores when gender inequality begins to open up in childhood; in which domains, how and why gender disparities persist across adolescence and into early adulthood; and, finally, whether and how gendered norms, values and practices impact on children’s trajectories.
