The influence of Vietnamese-Swedish development co-operation on democracy and human rights in Vietnam
Assessment of the contribution of development co-operation between Sweden and Vietnam to the situation of democracy and human rights in Vietnam, measured by indicators based on human rights standards from international conventions. The assessment concerns three sectors: the health sector, decentralisation and the legal sector. The report presents a synthesis of the studies carried out in these three sectors.
The analysis is based on three main elements of the human rights based approach (HRBA) framework:
- linkage to internationally recognised human rights standards
- focus on vulnerable and disadvantaged groups and non-discrimination
- transparency & accountability of the duty bearer and participation & empowerment of rights holders
