As part of phase one of the development of the Martin James Foundation's Asia Care Network, comprehensive studies of the care system in each country were conducted to highlight the need for developing alternative care systems across South-East Asia. This case study highlights relevant data from Vietnam.
According to the case study, the Vietnamese government has collaborated with multiple international charities and organisations in order to further develop the alternative care system. The foster care system in Vietnam is still in the early stages of development whilst kinship care is the traditional form of alternate child care.
