UNIVERSITY OF ECONOMICS HCMC VIETNAM – NETHERLANDS PROGRAMME FOR M.A IN DEVELOPMENT ECONOMICS A MULTIDIMENSIONAL APPROACH TO CHILD POVERTY IN VIETNAM A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS IN DEVELOPMENT ECONOMICS By LE THI KIM NHUNG Academic Supervisor: Dr TRAN TIEN KHAI Ho Chi Minh, December 2014 LUAN VAN CHAT LUONG download : add luanvanchat@agmail.com Le Thi Kim Nhung Master’s Thesis VNP19-2015 ABSTRACT In this study, multidimensional child poverty in Vietnam is approached using Young Lives Round dataset In total, 2898 children were analyzed after missing observations were taken out Six dimensions with 16 indicators were selected based on previous researches, public consensus and data availability These dimensions are: Education, Health, Nutrition, Shelter, Child Work and Leisure The Alkire and Foster (2011a) counting approach is applied to create multidimensional child poverty index and break down application is used for measuring the depth and intensity of child poverty When the poverty cut off point is set at level k=0.3, 30% of children were identified to be in multidimensional poor The shelter dimension contributes most deprived indicators to overall multidimensional child poverty rate while child insurance draws slightly attention due to its contribution to overal rate followed the shelter indications With respect to regional disparity, this is specially critical in upland northern region where children are greatly affected by multidimensional poverty Using poverty line from the cut off point, logistic regression model was carried out to determine major factors that causes overall multidimensional poverty Household characteristics including parents’ education, employment and household income have significant impact on poverty rate and effect high transition probabilities for the child moving into and out of multidimensional poor condition Key words: Multidimensional poverty measurement, Child Poverty, Deprivation, Alkire & Foster Methodology, Young Lives LUAN VAN CHAT LUONG download : add luanvanchat@agmail.com Le Thi Kim Nhung Master’s Thesis VNP19-2015

Master’s Thesis Le Thi Kim Nhung VNP19-2015 CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION Problems Statement Child poverty approach has become an area of focus for last two decades resulting from widely acknowledgement of child focused perspective in poverty eradication (Gordon, 2003; Minujin, Delamonica, González, & Davidziuk, 2005) Major reasons contributed to this increasing acknowledgement include these: Firstly, children are at a higher risk in poverty than adults due to their dependence on distribution of resources from their parents, household and communities in their direct environment (White, Leavy, & Masters, 2003); Secondly, if children grow up in poverty, they seem to be in poor condition in their adulthood as well (Corak, 2006a) Next, children’s basic needs are specific and totally different from adult’s, especially needs for nutrition and education in early stages, and the deprivation of these needs in childhood can cause permanent effect on their later outcome (Duncan & Brooks-Gunn, 1999) As a result, academic and policy makers attempt to target these needs effectively, based on empirical evidence of child poverty’s experiences (Boyden, 2005) and the use of multidimensional approach is necessary to capture these basic needs in identifying indicators for measuring child poverty (UNICEF, 2007b) In Vietnam, the rates of children who are considered in poverty condition remain high despite the rapid economic growth in the last decade since the renovation in late 1980s has large impact on country poverty reduction Hinsdale et al (2013) illustrate that one-third of Vietnamese children, estimated around million children are considered in multidimensional poor In addition, the high deprivation that children, are facing draws attention of further studies on children’s basic needs for effective policy intervention Despite the interest, there have not been comprehensive analyses of poverty towards children, as well as research studies investigating the causes of child poverty, presenting the knowledge gap for policy LUAN VAN CHAT LUONG download : add luanvanchat@agmail.com

multidimensional approach in Vietnam (Roelen, 2013; Roelen & Gassmann, 2012; Roelen, Gassmann, & de Neubourg, 2010; UNICEF, 2008) However, these studies only focused on views of choosing methods measuring child poverty and deprivation through multidimensional approach, rather than investigating the characteristics of children who fall into poverty conditions There are many debates in previous researches on child poverty indicators for measurement in both monetary and multidimensional approach (Gordon, 2003) Therefore, choosing an appropriate methodology to measure child poverty and define factors impacting child poverty may result in effective policy implications and interventions, which better identify specific poverty situations (Roelen, Gassmann, & Neubourg, 2009) In addition, children’s living conditions depend mostly on their parents or caregivers’ well-being, thus it is necessary to understand causes underlying household poor’s conditions, such as economic and demographic factors that drive individual earning capacity The objective of this study is to demonstrate the choices of dimensions, indicators for measuring child poverty in Vietnam through multidimensional approach and estimate probability of a child being poor by using data from Young Lives Survey In particular, this study expects to investigate poverty situation among children aged under 15 in Vietnam and determine factors that decrease or increase the probability of child poverty Research Objective The two research objectives are specified as follows: (i) Identify the dimensions, indicators of child poverty in Vietnam through multidimensional approach (ii) Identify the determinants of child poverty 10 LUAN VAN CHAT LUONG download : add luanvanchat@agmail.com
