RFP for research on “Strategic Options for Financing Health System Modernization and Development: what can Viet Nam learn from international experiences”

In an attempt to support Viet Nam to review implementation of the Socio-Economic Development Strategy (SEDS) 2001 – 2010 and formulate SEDS 2011 – 2020, MPI and UNDP have jointly developed “Support for the Formulation of Socio-Economic Development Strategy 2011-2020” project. The project will provide technical assistance to the Drafting Team -- and hence the Sub-Committee for the formulation of SEDS -- to (i) analyse and assess the development situation of the country comprehensively and (ii) propose to the Sub Committee strategic development directions and options for the nation for the next ten years.

The project plans to conduct a number of studies in 2009. One of the planned studies is a research paper (with its presentation to the Sub-Committee’s SEDS 2011-2020 Drafting Team) on “Strategic Options for Financing Health System Modernization and Development: what can Viet Nam learn from international experiences?”. The project is seeking an international institution/sub-contractor to undertake the research work.
