Accordingly, from January 2025 to the end of 2027, Vietnam will participate in coordinating the development and implementation of major orientations of UN Women, ensuring that the agency's strategies and activities are consistent with the UN's overall goals and policies on promoting gender equality and empowering women. As a member of the Executive Board, Vietnam will also participate in the process of approving plans, action programs as well as administrative, financial and budgetary decisions of UN Women.
