Viet Nam Action Plan

➤ We are very interested in judiciary operation in terms of gender equality and enforcement of
gender equality laws

➤ Although regional or international meetings would be helpful, our priority concern lies in
in-country programmes as we can change many people in our country.
➤ However, we do not exclude regional efforts as we expect that the outcome of
regional/international meetings where we learn knowledge and skills will be valuable inputs
for in-country trainings.
➤ Our programmes will target judges and prospective judges. Judges in local/provincial court
is a priority target because they are the ones who deal with domestic violence at the first hand.
➤ We need inputs and contributions from domestic as well as supreme court, Vietnamese
Labour Union, Vietnamese Womenûs Union is very important. Also, we would appreciate

technical and financial support from other international agencies including UNIFEM and NGOs.
➤ We would like to provide judges with gender analysis, equality in education regarding
women and children, gender knowledge and experiences, gender actions and other
development matters brought to us by international experts or consultants in the field.
Through these, court judges can be equipped with knowledge and skills to apply it to their
decisions.
➤ We will begin with conducting social surveys, then discuss issues, and finally develop

program including training of trainers module. After designing the training modules we would
like to deliver it across regions in Vietnam.
➤ We should also promote evaluation of training course.
