Facilitate Local Partnerships and Create a Support Ecosystem for Ethnic Minority Women and Youth on Income Generation in Ha Giang, Viet Nam
UNESCO looks forward to the active engagement of the relevant authorities, training institutions, mass organizations, cooperatives and businesses, and all other stakeholders in creating an ecosystem to support these women in their plan for livelihood generation. With the support ecosystem in place, these women will be able to lead their life and manage their financial independence. With an improved economic situation, women and girls in these families will be better able to access opportunities, including education, employment, health and other services.
