Storyline

Following her visit to Viet Nam, internationally acclaimed singer-songwriter and UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador Katy Perry called for increased focus on children being left behind in one of Asia’s fastest growing economies.

Perry recently travelled to the rural Ninh Thuan province considered among the poorest and most remote regions of Viet Nam. Her visit aimed to draw attention to critical issues impacting the millions of children who are not benefitting equally from prosperity.

UNICEF said half of the children in some Vietnamese regions live in absolute poverty and one in every five do not go to school. Around 50 percent of children in these regions also do not receive adequate health care, leading to high numbers of child deaths from preventable diseases every single day.

Perry visited UNICEF programmes aimed at ending exclusion for children with disabilities, and also saw the organization's work in child survival, education and early childhood development; water, sanitation and hygiene; and climate change. She said, “All the children I met have incredible dreams. We have to help them fight for those dreams.”
