“Month of action for gender equality and prevention of gender-based violence” taking place from November 15 to December 15 every year is a meaningful activity to mobilize the participation and involvement of agencies, organizations and all people, especially men, in eliminating gender inequality and preventing violence and abuse against women and children. The month of action is also a demonstration of commitment to gender equality, thereby contributing to reducing and ending violence and abuse against women and children.

In Nghe An province, in recent years, gender equality work has been well implemented and significant results have been achieved in the following areas: Politics, employment and economic development; education and training; health care; culture, sports and gender equality in the family.

The province has also been prioritizing necessary resources to implement many solutions to gradually narrow the gender gap in all areas; further improve women and children's access to health services, education, and employment, especially women in disadvantaged areas.
