My PhD study
• Split into two parts:
Part one: to explore the feasibility of using the EURO-URHIS data collection tools in Vietnam.
Part two: to explore the types of data used by NGOs in Vietnam, the barriers to using them, and NGO relationships with multi-sectoral stakeholders.

Challenges with the Vietnamese study
• Ethical approval is a lengthy process in Vietnam
• Cultural and Political issues– No longer able to collect data in Hanoi
• Change in Adult data collection methodology– No reliable postal system – Face-to-face interviews

Conclusions
• It has been possible to collect data using the Existing data collection tool
• Ethical approval process is close to completion• Challenges with conducting the study in
Vietnam have led to:– Delay in data collection– Changes to the adult survey data collection
methodology
• NGO study is still ongoing
