Due to many objective and subjective factors, persons with disabilities, especially women and girls with disabilities, are at high risk of gender violence. To strengthen knowledge and skills to support persons with disabilities with gender violence to relevant agencies, on November 29-30, 2022 in Tam Ky city, Quang Nam province, a training course on "Prevention of gender-based violence against persons with disabilities for relevant agencies" was held.

Under the enthusiastic guidance of the lecturer, the trainees listened attentively to the content on the prevention of gender-based violence against persons with disabilities to relevant agencies

The program had the attendance and opening speech of Ms Pham Thi Kim Phuong, Deputy Head of the Social Protection Department, Department of Labor - Invalids and Social Affairs, Quang Nam province.

Mr V. V. T - Deputy Head of the Justice Department, Hiep Duc district said: “I myself am a judicial officer, I have also been able to share relevant content. However, this training course I found extremely meaningful. It assisted me in better understanding the process of receiving a case via the sharing of lecturers and students in the class, allowing me to gain a lot of practical experience that I would utilise in my profession.”

At the end of the training session, Ms H. T. P - an officer from the health station of Phuoc Ninh commune, Nong Son district shared: “The training course is really meaningful to me. I frequently attend professional workshops, and I've never been to a class with so many agencies.
