Training course promotes gender equality awareness
VOV.VN - On September 10, a training course on gender equality was jointly launched by Radio Voice of Vietnam (VOV), the Ministry of Education and Training, and the United Nations Education, Science, Culture Organisation (UNESCO) Vietnam Office.
The event aims to raise awareness of gender equality and relevant communication skills among school students and it is one activity in the framework of the Project “Initiative on Gender Equity and Girl Education in Vietnam: empowering girls and women for a more equal society”.
During the course, 50 students from the Thuc Nghiem Junior High School in Hanoi were equipped with basic skills on drafting messages on such themes as education for girls and women, education on gender and sex, school bullying, and domestic violence.
After the course, the students will promisingly become “little reporters” to engage in communication work on these issues.
Similar courses will be conducted for reporters from media agencies.
