Vietnam's Party General Secretary Unveils Decade-Long Plan for Women's Empowerment
Party General Secretary Tô Lâm has outlined a comprehensive roadmap for advancing gender equality and empowering women in Vietnam. The decade-long plan, spanning 2025 to 2035 with a vision to 2045, aims to create modern Vietnamese women who are patriotic, resilient, digitally savvy, and eco-conscious innovators.
Lâm reaffirmed the Party's and State's commitment to expanding opportunities for women in leadership, governance, starting a business, and science and technology. A sweeping digital transformation within the Vietnam Women's Union (VWU) was mandated, with each city or province required to develop at least one women-led livelihood or cooperative project and every commune to produce a signature 'One Commune, One Product' (OCOP) item crafted by women.
To achieve these goals, Lâm urged the VWU to launch a new-term emulation campaign themed 'Our Vietnamese Women: Aspiration - Intelligence - Compassion - Creativity - Sustainability - Happiness'. The VWU was tasked with expanding the 'Sisterhood' mentoring network and promoting reading, digital literacy, financial skills, and mental health as core activities. Clear plans were called for at all VWU chapters to identify, train, and promote women leaders, with an emphasis on project management, digital skills, and communications training.
Preserving Vietnamese cultural heritage, including the traditional long dress, culinary arts, crafts, language, and family values, was championed. Early childhood education, nutrition, and child development were emphasized as strategic levers for boosting productivity and population quality. Policy goals outlined include bolstering social protection, safeguarding women and children, tackling domestic and gender-based violence, curbing online abuse, and improving early childhood education, maternity care, reproductive health, and a healthy cultural environment. Collaboration with police, justice, and internal affairs bodies was stressed to combat gender-based violence, trafficking, and cybercrime.
The Party's and State's commitment to advancing gender equality and empowering women in Vietnam is evident in the comprehensive roadmap laid out by Party General Secretary Tô Lâm. With a focus on digital transformation, leadership development, cultural preservation, and policy improvements, the plan aims to create a future where Vietnamese women are modern, resilient, and thriving.
