HÀ NỘI — The 2024 national journalism award on gender equality, the first of its kind in Việt Nam, was launched on the first day of November - the action month for gender equality and prevention of gender-based violence.
At the November 1 event, Nguyễn Thị Minh Hương, Vice President of the Vietnam Women’s Union (VWU), said that submissions should accurately and diversely reflect the efforts of various sectors, organisations, and the broader society in making progress in the field. The organisers hope that participating works will not only highlight pressing issues but also propose practical, sustainable solutions in a bid to promote positive changes in society.
The award will focus on the three main themes of promoting the prevention of and response to gender-based violence, advancing gender equality in digital transformation, and fostering gender equality in economic development.
