Vietnam Meets the East African Community: Unlocking the Next Frontier of South-South Cooperation (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798247859932)

The book, Vietnam Meets the East African Community examines the emerging possibilities for deeper cooperation between the two regions through the lens of South-South Cooperation (SSC). Despite shared development experiences and growing economic complementarities, relations between Vietnam and the East African Community remain limited and under-explored.

Drawing on policy analysis, trade and investment data, interviews, surveys, and field insights, the book explores how Vietnam's development trajectory and the East African Community's emerging strengths can inform context-specific and reciprocal cooperation in sectors such as agriculture, trade, technology, environmental sustainability, tourism, and institutional capacity-building. It highlights both opportunities and constraints, emphasizing the importance of people-cantered, mutually beneficial, and context-sensitive partnerships.

Moving beyond rhetoric, this book demonstrates how South-South Cooperation can function as an economic, developmental, and strategic framework for emerging economies, offering a grounded and evidence-based contribution to contemporary debates. providing policymakers, researchers, and practitioners with a clearer understanding of how Vietnam-EAC relations could be structured for long-term shared development.
