The 12th National Women's Congress took place in the context of the renovation process initiated and led by our Party having achieved great and historic achievements; the 12th National Party Congress opened up new opportunities for the country and development opportunities for all classes of people in general and women in particular, but also set great requirements and tasks for the entire political system, including the Women's Union.
All levels, sectors and the whole society are determined to fight, prevent and push back the degradation of political ideology, morality, lifestyle, and manifestations of "self-evolution" and "self-transformation" within the Party in the spirit of the Resolution of the 4th Conference of the 12th Party Central Committee.
That context requires the Vietnam Women's Union to continue to strongly innovate the patriotic emulation movement and the activities of the organization; unite, mobilize, gather, and arouse the great potential of women of all classes, meet the requirements of the new development period, and fulfill the core role in women's work. Each cadre and female member continues to strive to study, work creatively, improve productivity, quality, and efficiency, proactively integrate into the international community, and build a prosperous, progressive, happy, and civilized family.
From the above requirements, the Congress has the task of reviewing and objectively evaluating the results, limitations and causes; drawing truly profound lessons through the implementation of the Resolution of the 11th National Women's Congress; focusing on intelligence and democratic discussion to determine the goals, directions and tasks for the 2017-2022 term; approving the Charter of the Vietnam Women's Union (amended and supplemented); electing the 12th Central Executive Committee of the Union that is truly exemplary in political qualities, ethics, intelligence, and has the capacity to lead and fulfill the great tasks of the women's movement and the Union's work in the coming time.
