All of them would enjoy free-of-charge public transport services and 60% of trans-provincial transport fees. The program also looks to enable people with disabilities to use IT public services, accounting for a third of the national average rate.
Under the program, 70% of localities would have sports clubs for people with disabilities. Specifically, 15% of persons with disabilities would be encouraged to engage in sports exercises. Around 20% of disabled people would participate in cultural and art activities.

According to a study, which was released by the UNICEF in 2019, there were 6.2 million people with disabilities in Viet Nam, accounting for 7% of the country’s population. Besides, the study found, nearly 12 million people — 13% of the nation — live in households with a handicapped person.
Households with disabled members are often poorer and there are fewer job opportunities for people with disabilities. Moreover, handicapped children are less likely to attend school than their peers. At high-school level, less than one-third of children with disabilities go to school at the right age, compared to two-thirds of children without disabilities./.
