Population work is shifting its focus from family planning to the larger content of population development. Determining that the quality of the team will determine the quality of population work, the draft project has proposed 5 basic solutions with the goal of providing knowledge, professional skills and aiming for professionalization for this team by 2030. Specific targets and objectives are also proposed in each phase until 2025 and 2030.

At the meeting, some delegates said that it is necessary to clarify the funding source for training and development because this funding source has been regulated according to the current decentralization, so separate funding for the project is impossible. Some opinions also suggested: merging the two projects into one with the main content of improving population quality, including both staff work and communication work.

Concluding the meeting, regarding the project to train population officers, the Vice Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee said that it is necessary to adjust the name as well as the implementation period of the project from 2020 to 2025. The issue of funding for the project must also be clarified. Issuing certificates will be the main form to record the content that population officers have been trained.

Regarding the draft project to innovate and improve the quality of communication, population education and development, this project will focus on raising awareness and creating consensus among the whole society in comprehensively and synchronously solving issues of population size, structure, distribution and quality.

Specifically, aiming to reduce the birth rate, reduce the rate of third and higher births, soon reach the replacement birth rate; move towards bringing the sex index at birth to natural balance; effectively exploit the structure and quality of the golden population... contributing to the rapid and sustainable socio-economic development of Nghe An.

However, at the meeting, many delegates said that there should be more communication solutions for population and development, and merging two projects to build a common project in just 5 years was still suggested by many opinions.

Concluding this content, comrade Bui Dinh Long suggested that the health sector supplement the draft project, and agreed with the opinions of many delegates to merge the two projects together.
