The result of the 2011-2013 project was unveiled at a conference in Thai Binh province on December 3 by the Ministry of Labour, Invalids, and Social Affairs, in conjunction with the RoK Ministry of Gender Equality and Family.
Begun in 2011, the project was designed to create more jobs for women and support their economic independence and self-sufficiency.
It has offered participating women a number of training courses, Korean language lessons, and organised group counseling sessions.
A recent job bazaar in Thai Binh province welcomed 100 Vietnamese enterprises looking to recruit 15,000 employees for various domestic and international positions. Over 1,000 female jobseekers attended.
The project also encompassed a rural commune job consultancy pilot programme running in Can Tho City and its surrounds. It assisted more than 100 women looking for work, 76% of whom are interested in local employment.
Addressing the event, a Thai Binh official recommended the project extend its initiatives to continue helping rural women get steady jobs so as to realise the ultimate goal of achieving gender equality.
