The situation of contemporary Viet Nam raises a paradox. On one hand this country with strong economic growth has enjoyed noticeable improvements in its social and economic conditions, which allowed it to become a middle income country in 2010. On the other hand, because of this success, it is gradually deprived of the powerful international support it has enjoyed during the last decades. This compels the government to undertake measures necessary to ensure the sustainability of its social model. This constraint is especially true in the health sector. The fight against HIV/AIDS will reach a milestone at the end of this year when the main international programs will have come to an end. At this date, the main supports from the Global Fund, the Asian Development Bank and the United States Emergency Plan of Aid for AIDS (PEPFAR) will have withdrawn. Consequently, the Ministry of health has recently appealed to all national resources that could be mobilized. It fears that there would be a resurgence of the epidemic (Bô Y tê [Ministry of health], 2017). How can social science address these issues? To illustrate the approach adopted in the field of population studies, I will present research works that I have coordinated and before that, provide a quick overview of their socio-demographic and cultural context.
