Today, more and more women are actively participating in social activities both in urban and rural
areas. Specifically, they have shined brightly in even many fields commonly regarded as the man's areas
such as business, scientific research and social management. In some areas, women even show more
overwhelming power than men. The image of contemporary Vietnamese women with creativeness,
dynamism, success has become popular in Vietnam's society. The fact reveals that the gender gap has
been remarkably narrowed and women enjoy many more opportunities to pursue their social careers and
obtain success, contributing to national socio-economic development. According to Ms, Le Thi Quy,
Director of the Gender/and Development Research Centre under the University of Social Sciences and
Humanities, Hanoi National University, gender equity in Vietnam has reached a high level over the past
decade. The rate of Vietnamese women becoming National Assembly members from the 9th term to the
11th term increased 8.7%, bringing the proportion of Vietnamese women in authority to 27.3%, the
highest rate in Southeast Asia. There is no big gap in the level of literacy and schooling between men
and women. Women account for about 37% of university and college graduates, 19.9% of doctoral
degree holders and 6.7% of professors and associate professors.
The legitimate rights of women and children are ensured more than ever before with more complete
legal documents including laws, conventions and national action plans, among which the laws on
"gender equity" mark a turning-point in the empowerment of women.
Mass media also highlights the continued success of women in every field and honors their great
importance in modern society, helping to do away with outdated perceptions about traditional women's
duties. Many projects on reproductive health care, children protection, and family income improvement
jointly conducted by various mass organizations, state agencies and non-governmental organizations
have created favorable conditions for women to become involved.
