The scoping analysis will help inform Hanoi Post’s internal decision-making on positioning its future GEDSI portfolio in Vietnam, related to whether MSMEs can be an effective mechanism in creating decent job creation for women, as well as people with disabilities, ethnic minority women, and other under‑represented or disadvantaged groups in Vietnam (also referred to as women and GEDSI groups).

Hanoi Post recognises that GoV and development partners have provided various supports for the development of MSMEs in Vietnam over the years. The scoping analysis would assist DFAT to understand what has been learned from that support, in particular with the lens of decent job creation for women and GEDSI groups.

The report is for Hanoi Post’s internal use and will not be published.
