Vietnam achieves significant progress in gender equality
The Ministry of Labour, Invalids and Social Affairs, UN Women, and the Australian Embassy in Hanoi on Friday opened a workshop to review Vietnam’s 10 year implementation of the national strategy on gender equality and to plan its strategy for the next decade.
Elisa Fernandez, UN Women Head of Office in Vietnam, said with new challenges ahead, Vietnam is urged to adopt more practical policies and timely actions to maintain what it has achieved and at the same time find solutions for newly-emerging problems.
In Vietnam, 2020 will be the final year of the implementation of its first National Strategy on Gender Equality and the government will develop a new gender equality strategy for the period of 2021-2030.
