Special Seminar
Educational system in Vietnam
Education
has
historically
been
one
of
the
most
important
policy
issues
in
Vietnam.
However,
education
system
in
Vietnam
has
been
complex
and
influenced
by
the
changes
of
institutions
governing
welfare
policies.
While
recent
economic
growth
in
Vietnam
during
the
last
two
decades
can
be
attributed
to
its
rich
human
capital
base,
there
are
growing
concerns
over
existing
education
systems
in
the
era
of
globalization.
The
seminar
will
invite
Dr.
Jonathan
London
(Leiden
University,
the
Netherlands)
and
Dr.
Ian
Coxhead
(University
of
Wisconsin,
USA)
as
presenters
to
discuss
various
issues
related
to
education
in
Vietnam,
from
socio-political
as
well
as
economic
perspectives.
Dr.
London
will
review
how
past
and
present
political
regimes
have
dealt
with
education
in
their
nation
building
and
welfare
provisions
policies.
Dr
Coxhead
will
discuss
challenges
that
Vietnam
faces
to
broaden
and
deepen
the
reach
of
its
educational
system
as
the
country
transitions
to
globalization
and
middle-income
status.
