 For many years now, there is little doubt about the fruitful partnership between the European Union and UNFPA. In recognition of the close ties between the two, a parliamentary delegation from the European Parliamentarians Forum on Population and Development (EPF) will be visiting the EU/UNFPA Reproductive Health Initiative for Youth in Asia Programme (RHIYA) in Viet Nam from 23rd to 25th November.
The delegation includes 10 key members of parliament, namely Hon. Sarmite Kikuste, Senator Mary Henry, Hon. Gudrun Ogmindsdottir, Hon. Hélène Mignon, Hon. Hilde Vautmans, Hon. Anne van Lancker, Hon. Kirsten Brosbol, Hon. Nicolay Gerarsimenko, Hon. Karl Öllinger and Hon. Teresa Caeiro. In a three-day study tour, they will have a chance to gain hands-on experience of what RHIYA has achieved in the domain of sexual reproductive health in the last three years by visiting the UNFPA country office, which is the host of the event and RHIYA youth friendly corners. During these visits, Parliamentarians will meet with RHIYA stakeholders, policy makers, young people and locals from all walks of life. The study tour will also bring European friends a better view of Viet Nam as well as her history, culture and society, thus contributing to the mutual understanding between Viet Nam and European countries.
