In Viet Nam, visited by the previous mandate holder in July 2010 (see A/HRC/16/45/Add.2), UNICEF has been supporting the Ministry of Education and Training to address disparities in education outcomes between the majority and ethnic minorities. The mother tongue–based bilingual education programme has been implemented since 2008 in three provinces with three different ethnic minorities—Mong, Jrai and Khmer—and shows very positive results.
