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.

Within the framework of the project "Raising voices, create opportunities for persons with disabilities in Thua Thien Hue province in the 2021-2024 period" funded by the United States Agency for International Development (USAID), on October 19th -20th  2022, a training course on "Independent living and disability equality for relevant officials and the OPDs" took place in Hue city. The activity was organized by Action to the Community Development Institute (ACDC) and Thua Thien Provincial Project Management Unit. 

Physical access is one of the key factors in promoting social assistance for persons with disabilities. In fact, many persons with disabilities, families of persons with disabilities, and even the staff of departments or policy-implementing units of persons with disabilities are still limited in knowledge and skills related to accessibility standards in construction. In order to contribute to improving this issue, in May, ACDC cooperated with stakeholders to organize 2 training courses "Physical access for association officials and officials of related departments" in Quang Tri and Thua Thien Hue provinces.
