Vietnam has achieved many achievements in human development, which is reflected in the increase in HDI rankings, increase in component indexes as well as HDI value, the growth rate of HDI among the highest in the world but there are many challenges that Vietnam needs to overcome to get higher HDI. This research collected and analyzed secondary data to analyze, compare and evaluate data on HDI, IHDI, inequality, gender gap, disparities in regions and people groups and some other related indicators to indicate Viet Nam's achievements in human development since 1990, and more importantly, the study identified challenges in gender gaps, disparities in regions and people groups. In order to overcome these challenges and increase HDI much more, based on the analysis of the state of Vietnam's human development and its challenges, the study proposed some policy suggestions such as: (1) Closing the gender gap in education and labor participation; (2) Reducing disparities among regions and population groups; (3). Improving the access ability to education and health care for the poor; (4) Improving people's income and quality of life.
