Australia, World Bank support Vietnam’s data survey on gender
(VOVWORLD) - The World Bank (WB) has signed an agreement with the State Bank of Vietnam (SBV) to provide a non-refundable aid worth 740,000 AUD (563,000 USD) through the the Australia-World Bank Group Strategic Partnership’s second phase to help Vietnam conduct a nationwide survey serving its gender policy making.
The survey is part of the economic empowerment project for Vietnamese women, performed by the General Statistics Office (GSO). It covers 6,000 men and women across the country to collect data on their daily time allocations. The survey will provide more data on the time for unpaid jobs and serve as a foundation for redistributing those fairly for equality and for the economy.
