The delegation attended the Forum of Women Parliamentarians on Sunday and shared Vietnam’s experience in online education during the COVID-19 pandemic. In the first two years of the pandemic, 80% of learning in Vietnam was done online.
Vietnam proposed that countries adopt policies to protect women's mental and physical health, raise the awareness of risks for girls who participate in online activities, narrow the gender digital gap, and reduce negative gender stereotypes.
At the Forum of Young Parliamentarians, Vietnam suggested that countries increase youth participation, recognize youth initiatives for implementing climate change response policies, and encourage the role of youth, and promote inter-parliamentary cooperation to share related experience.
On Monday, the head of the Vietnamese delegation met with IPU Secretary General Martin Chungong and President Duarte Pacheco to discuss the promotion of cooperation between the NA and the IPU.
