Speaking at the seminar, Ambassador Yaron Mayer said: "Investing in women's health is not only humanitarian but also a smart action to build a more prosperous society. When women are healthy, families and communities will also be stronger. We believe that women's health is not only a personal issue but also the foundation for sustainable community development."

The Ambassador also encouraged women to take full advantage of the health check-up services and useful information from the seminar. He affirmed that the event is a testament to the strong friendship between Israel and Vietnam. Israel is not only innovative and pioneering in the field of health care, but also focuses on mutual support, knowledge sharing, and ensuring that everyone has equal access to health care.

Deputy Director of the Department of Maternal and Child Health Tran Dang Khoa highly appreciated this initiative and looked forward to deeper cooperation in the future to bring advanced medical technologies from Israel to Vietnam, helping to improve the quality of women's health care.

At the workshop, doctors from Family Medical Practice Clinic, Vietnam - Russia High Pressure Oxygen Center and Hanoi Obstetrics Hospital shared a lot of useful information about nutrition and reproductive health, common diseases in women, the importance of regular health check-ups... This knowledge helps women raise awareness of taking care of their own health and that of their families.

Within the framework of the event, the Embassy of Israel in Vietnam introduced advanced Israeli medical technologies, attracting the attention of health agencies, businesses, international organizations and non-governmental organizations. The prominent technologies introduced include: Smart diagnostic systems using artificial intelligence (AI), early disease detection technology, applications for women, and solutions to optimize medical examination and treatment processes.

Earlier that morning, 100 women in difficult circumstances or with illnesses in Soc Son district, Hanoi received a free comprehensive health check-up at Medlatec Clinic Hanoi. This is the first group of 300 people to be supported in the coming time. The activity is part of the campaign "Happy and healthy women, strong community" jointly organized by the Embassy of Israel in Vietnam and the Center for Women and Development.

"The Embassy of Israel in Vietnam is committed to playing the role of a bridge, helping to bring advanced Israeli medical technologies to Vietnam. We realize this through innovation, providing information and facilitating businesses, healthcare service providers and related organizations in Vietnam to access suitable solutions from Israel.

The Israel Economic and Trade Office in Vietnam is always ready to support connecting partners in the healthcare sector, in order to find technologies and solutions that meet the practical needs of the Vietnamese healthcare system. In addition, we also organize working groups to Israel to directly access the technology, learn how it operates and apply it in practice.

However, technology transfer is not simply about purchasing new medical equipment or products. For technology to be effective, it requires proper training, adaptation to local conditions and ensuring that the medical team can operate it proficiently. Technology is only truly valuable when it serves people and brings practical benefits to patients."

According to the Ambassador, each country has its own characteristics in terms of language, culture and healthcare system, so adapting technology to suit the reality in Vietnam is very important.

"We are actively cooperating with the Vietnamese Government and relevant agencies to promote relevant initiatives, contributing to improving the quality of medical services and health care for the community," said Ambassador Yaron Mayer.
