It also serves as a reference base for developing laws, policies, and tools to provide quality social work services, added Deputy Minister Nguyen Thi Ha.
UNFPA Representative in Vietnam Matt Jackson shared the UN Population Fund’s commitment to supporting Vietnam in addressing gender-based violence, including replicating the One-Stop Service Centre, also known as Anh Duong (Sunshine) House, in other provinces and cities.
This model has provided very effective services that meet international standards including health care, counseling, social welfare services, emergency shelters, and legal and judicial services.
With the replication of the Anh Duong House model, the UNFPA aims to reach more and more women and girls who are at risk of or affected by gender-based violence and domestic violence, he stressed.
Representative of the UN Children's Fund (UNICEF) in Vietnam Rana Flowers said that the UNICEF is honored to cooperate with ASEAN in the process of developing the Hanoi Declaration, adopted by member countries in 2020 when Vietnam assumed the role as the Chair of ASEAN and ASEAN's 10-year implementation roadmap. The organization is committed to supporting the implementation of these strategic frameworks and expects all member countries to carry out the guidance.
The event was organized within the framework of the joint project on the elimination of violence against women and children in Vietnam for the 2021-2025 period, with financial support from the Australian Government./.
