It is one activity in the framework of the Project “Initiative on Gender Equity and Girl Education in Vietnam: empowering girls and women for a more equal society”.
During the course, 50 students from the Thuc Nghiem Junior High School in Hanoi were equipped with basic skills on drafting messages on such themes as education for girls and women, education on gender and sex, school bullying, and domestic violence.
After the course, the students are hoped to become “little reporters” to engage in communication work on these issues.
