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.
