Hanoi seminar seeks ways to create a modern Vietnamese woman

Women’s associations at all levels need to develop human resources and promote the role and social responsibility of women in order to create a modern Vietnamese woman with knowledge, morality, good health, and a sense of responsibility for herself, her family, and society, according to a national seminar that took place in Hanoi on Monday. Nguyen Thi Minh Huong, Vice President of the Vietnam Women’s Union, said women have increasingly affirmed their potential, role, and position in the family and society in the new era.

Each woman has to overcome many barriers in the new era, Huong said, adding: “We always try to raise awareness and change gender stereotypes. We also provide support for livelihood and economic development, and have a project to encourage women to join the collective economy. We think creating a livelihood where one lives can be an important solution.”
