WHAT IS VBCWE?
The Vietnam Business Coalition for Women's Empowerment (VBCWE) was launched in February 2018 through Investing in Women (IW) program funded by the Australian Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade (DFAT), for the purpose of pursuing gender equality in the workplace and women’s economic empowerment in Vietnam.
