The club model "Women integrating in the online environment" is one of the two basic models of a project on empowering women through access to the Law on Cyber Security, and the Marriage and Family Law, sponsored by the Justice Initiatives Facilitation Fund (JIFF) - EU Justice and Legal Empowerment Programme (EU JULE).
This is a model of organising voluntary social activities in the community, with the purpose of raising awareness of women and the community about the role of each person in preventing and combating fraud and crime in cyberspace, and building happy families.
Members of the model club in Doan Ket commune (Yen Thuy) participate in a communication programme under the project.
Nguyen Thi Viet Nga, Chief of Office of the provincial Women's Union, said that in August 2023, the union made debut two "Women integrating in the online environment" clubs with 60 members in the communes of Doan Ket (Yen Thuy) and Huong Nhuong (Lac Son). Members are reputable individuals in the community, who actively participate in social activities.
After the establishment of the clubs, the provincial Women's Union project management board has organised 21 training classes, and various communication activities. With diverse forms, those activities have drawn the attention and active participation of members and local people. For example, the talk on using social networks properly, safely and effectively attracted the participation of 200 union members and people; or the training programme on skills to use e-commerce applications and social networks in business activities inspired the establishment of an economic development group with similar interests to support each other in production and business. Over 3,100 people in the two communes have benefited from activities of the model.
A workshop on promoting the role of reputable individuals and religious dignitaries in popularising and promoting gender equality in ethnic minorities and mountainous areas was held by the Vietnam Women's Union (VWU) in Hoa Binh province on July 16.
Hoa Binh province has 145 out of the 151 communes, wards, and towns which are ethnic minority-inhabited and mountainous areas, 506 communes facing extreme difficulties, and more than 74% of its population being ethnic minority people.
Creating on-site jobs for rural women lies in the heart of the operation of the Women's Union of Lac Thinh commune in Yen Thuy district. Bui Thi Tien, 44, of the Muong ethnic group, a member of the women's union of Sau hamlet in Lac Thinh commune, has boldly sought and created jobs for many women to increase their income and improve their families' living standards.
Defining socio-economic development and effective implementation of policies on ethnic affairs in the locality has been a continuous and crucial task during 2019-2024 period, the Party Committee and People's Committee of Cao Phong district have focused on leadership in executing these tasks, achieving positive results. The material and spiritual lives of people in ethnic minority-inhabited and mountainous areas have gradually improved while rural area has gained a face-lift.
Hoa Binh’s education and training sector is implementing concerted measures to better the quality of education and training, proactively implementing the national target programme on new rural area building.
Family is the home of each person and the cell of a society. It also plays a significant role in the formation and development of each person’s personality. On May 4, 2001, the Prime Minister issued Decision No. 72/2001/QD-TTg, designating June 28 as the Vietnamese Family Day. Over the past years, Hoa Binh province has carried out a number of activities to honour the family traditions and help develop prosperous, progressive, equal, happy "cells of society”.
