The northern province of Nam Dinh hosted a course on April 24 discussing ways to expand women’s leadership roles in the state sector as Vietnam’s international integration process continues.
The course is part of the Cambridge-Vietnam Women Leadership Programme entitled “Empowerment of women in the public sector in the context of international economic integration” jointly launched by the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) and the Vietnamese Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MoFA).
Over April 24–26, representatives from cities and provinces will have the chance to improve their leadership skills, human resource management, and presentation and communication techniques.
Nguyen Nguyet Nga, the Head of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs’ Multilateral Economic Cooperation Department, said the seminar allows women to discuss their opinions on major issues arising from international integration, economic restructuring, and sustainable development .
The project has been running since 2008 and focuses on attaining gender equality. Vietnamese women have been granted scholarships for study at the UK’s University of Cambridge as well as for shorter-term training courses.
