The MoU was inked between the Ministry of Labour, War Invalids and Social Affairs (MoLISA) and the Sudanese Ministry of Human Resources Development and Labour on November 6 in Hanoi.
 
It focuses on increasing the exchange of knowledge and experience in poverty reduction, vocational training, and labour safety.
