Abstract
As Vietnam enters a crucial period of
urbanization corresponding to its present stage of economic
development, the Government of Vietnam has placed strong
emphasis on developing its system of cities. In accordance
with this objective this Urbanization Review is dedicated to
understanding the key dimensions and aspects of
Vietnam's urbanization process and to identifying
trends, opportunities, challenges and core policy priorities
that the government will need to address in order to realize
its objective. The Vietnam Urbanization Review was prepared
following extensive consultations with various stakeholders,
including officials from national and local government,
private sector groups and international and bilateral
organizations active in development assistance in the urban
sector in Vietnam. It builds on a strong portfolio of World
Bank engagements in investment and policy lending to the
Government of Vietnam. It also builds on a number of more
in-depth studies that were commissioned specifically for the
Vietnam urbanization review.
