KOICA is currently supporting the VWU with a project “Capacity Building on Gender Equality, Women’s Empowerment and Girls Protection” for three years (2019-2021), through providing specialized training courses for officials of all-level VWU chapters and representatives of some relevant agencies on women affairs, such as policy advice, vocational training, and knowledge on gender equality.
