Abstract
ABSTRACTFood insecurity exists when households do not have physical, social and economic access to sufficient, safe and nutritious food that meets their dietary needs and food preferences. Food insecurity remains a serious challenge for many households in Vietnam and the situation is even more prevalent among rural smallholders. Therefore, this study aims to assess the food insecurity status according to rural households’ profile and present better intervention strategies for policy makers to reduce food insecurity among rural households in Vietnam.KEYWORDS: Socioeconomic factorindigenous peoplerural householdVietnam AcknowledgementsWe would like to express our sincere thanks to the Aus4Skills program from the Australian government for their generous support to conduct this work under grant No. AAGF-R3-00060.
