Sharing at the program, Director of the Research Center for Inclusive Development (RCI) Nguyen Thanh Thuy said: People with disabilities in Vietnam still have many disadvantages in accessing transportation services, social infrastructure, and finding jobs. Therefore, through this Job Fair, RCI hopes to connect businesses and disabled youth, helping disabled youth find suitable jobs, and businesses recruit workers who meet recruitment criteria. Through the program, the Organizing Committee also hopes to convey the message that when businesses and business establishments have recruitment needs, they should create a friendly environment for disabled youth, creating convenient facilities for disabled youth to easily access when coming to work.

Along with that, disabled people themselves must also strive to complete assigned work, comply with company rules and regulations. Thereby, businesses will change their perspective on the capacity of disabled people, including the ability to participate in work and the ability to coordinate in groups. Hopefully, young people with disabilities will be more confident, enthusiastic in finding opportunities for themselves, inspiring disabled people who are still hesitant to find jobs, establish themselves, and start a career.
