On June 26, the Vietnam Education Union (GDVN) organized a conference to summarize 15 years of implementing Resolution No. 6b/NQ-BCH, Directive No. 03/CT-TLĐ for the period 2010-2025.
Speaking at the opening, Mr. Nguyen Ngoc An - Chairman of the Vietnam Education Union emphasized that the results achieved in the past 15 years are an important foundation, but cannot be applied intact in the new context. Faced with the strong changes in the country and global trends, female teachers and workers in the Education sector need to proactively innovate their thinking, improve their adaptive capacity, and be ready to meet the requirements of the digital transformation and new development era.
Reporting on the summary of 15 years of implementing Resolution No. 6b/NQ-BCH on mobilizing female workers, civil servants, and laborers in the period of accelerating industrialization and modernization of the country and Directive No. 03/CT-TLĐ on continuing to promote the emulation movement "Good at work, good at housework" among female workers, civil servants, and laborers in the period 2010-2025, Ms. Luong Thi Viet Ha - Head of Labor Relations Department of the Vietnam Education Union said that in the past 15 years, trade unions of units have organized over 10,000 propaganda sessions for 500,000 female officials, teachers, and laborers (CBNGNLĐ) about regimes and policies; about gender, gender equality...
Social activities, supporting female CBNGNLĐ in difficult circumstances, supporting CBNGNLĐ children overcoming difficulties to study well and other humanitarian and charitable activities are effectively implemented by trade union levels. Trade unions of units have promptly supported and visited and encouraged female CBNGNLĐ in difficult family circumstances from trade union funds such as the "Trade Union Home" fund, the "Supporting Female CBNGNLĐ in Difficult Circumstances" fund... Annually, the work of supporting visits by trade unions of units reaches a total amount of over 1.5 billion VND.
Trade unions of units are also very interested in women's work, increasing the proportion of women participating in the Executive Committee, Standing Committee, and key positions. As a result, the proportion of women participating in the Standing Committee and Executive Committee increased compared to the previous term. In the 2025-2030 term, there are 290 female officials in the Trade Union Executive Committee, ensuring a rate of over 30%. The number of female CBNGNLĐ who have studied to improve their professional qualifications, skills, and nghiệp vụ in the period 2021-2025 is 353,740 people.
As a result of implementing Directive No. 03/CT-TLĐ dated August 18, 2010 of the Vietnam General Confederation of Labor, female CBNGNLĐ paid special attention to self-study, self-training, improving qualifications, professional expertise, actively innovating teaching methods, scientific research, and using information technology in the teaching process...

Ms. Vu Thi Hong Phuong - Trade Union of Thuong Mai University pointed out some practical issues that female workers are facing such as pressure from autonomy mechanisms, KPI and digital transformation; in some places, female labor activities are still heavily focused on form; some current policies do not fully reflect gender characteristics in the higher education environment.
From the above reality, representatives of the Trade Union of Thuong Mai University proposed a number of orientations at the grassroots level: Flexify working hours for female workers in the stage of raising young children, organize groups to support scientific research for female lecturers... At the same time, to make the solutions widely implemented, representatives of the Trade Union of Thuong Mai University expressed their desire to receive support from the Vietnam Education Union through organizing in-depth training programs on gender equality.
