New topic page on SDG 4 Quality education published on Open Development Mekong

 In the Lower Mekong Countries, it is only in Vietnam that almost all children finish primary school. For the other countries, the key factors limiting access to primary education are generally economic (such as no money to support education or children being required to help on farms or earn money) and cultural attitudes (such as boys being given priority in education and girls being expected to stay at home).

Please access the new topic page on SDG 4 for more detail about quality education in Mekong region.
