As 🇻🇳 is facing rapid ageing population, on 27 Nov, UNFPA & UN RCO conducted a roundtable dialogue to understand expectations of the future older persons and aged care givers. The insights will be used to inform the priorities of new #UNCooperationFramework w/ 🇻🇳.
I very much enjoyed meeting students from Hà Giang Ethnic Minority High School - Trường PTDT Nội Trú - THPT Tỉnh Hà Giang
We chatted about comprehensive sexuality education, their ambitions & they showed me around their school facilities. Good luck to all the students!
