Mr. Youssouf Abdel-Jelil, UNICEF Representative in Viet Nam
speaks at the launch event

In his speech at the launch event of the final report, the UNICEF Representative in Viet Nam, Mr. Youssouf Abdel-Jelil, said : "The MICS 2014 report is a breakthrough data collection tool that helps us identify who the most vulnerable and excluded children are and where they can be found. We have an important opportunity to use the MICS 2014 report to set in motion a new cycle of sustainable development by identifying the bottlenecks that stand in the way of these children and strengthen local health, sanitation, education and social protection systems. From there national and provincial programmes, services and investments should be shaped around the needs of these most disadvantaged children."

His full speech is available here.
