Attending the ceremony were comrade Nguyen Long Bien, member of the Provincial Party Committee, Vice Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee; leaders of departments, branches, unions and over 250 union members, youth, civil servants, public employees and workers of agencies and units in the province.
After more than 12 years of implementing the National Action Strategy on Gender Equality, the role and status of women and men in the province have been significantly improved. The whole province has 50/92 state management agencies and local authorities at all levels with key female leaders, reaching 54.38%. Currently, the number of employed workers in the whole province is over 18,000 people; of which over 53% are female workers in all economic sectors. The rate of trained female workers is over 51% of the total number of trained workers. The health care work for women and children has also achieved many remarkable results. Besides the achieved results, gender equality work in general and women's work in particular still has many shortcomings. The rate of female cadres participating in management and leadership at all levels is still low, not commensurate with the strength and contributions of women. The lives of a segment of women and children are still difficult, especially women from ethnic minorities, rural areas, remote areas. Violence against women and children still exists...
