HAI PHONG, Viet Nam European donor countries can learn from Viet Nam in providing sexual and reproductive health information and services for young people, an Irish member of parliament said during a 2-day study tour to the port city of Hai Phong.
Senator Mary Henry was one of seven European parliamentarians introduced to Viet Nams youth-friendly health services, set up over the past three years with support from the European Union (EU) and the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) totalling US$2.4 million.
Most social problems are international, Henry said after seeing a rural counselling and service centre for young people in Tan Phong commune, on the outskirts of Viet Nams third-most populous city.
We have nothing like this in our countries. We will learn a lot that we may be able to apply when we return home to our countries. We could look on the money that we have given as an investment for what we can do at home, she said.
The centre she and the other parliamentarians visited is like the 21 others around seven provinces in Viet Nam, created as part of a regional joint EU-UNFPA initiative to improve the sexual and reproductive health of young people in seven Asian countries, the RHIYA programme.
The youth-friendly corner concept is simple: create a comfortable space young people can access easily, and where they can get information, confidential counselling, services and contraceptives when they want or need them.
The colourful decor of Viet Nams youth-friendly corners is designed and created by local youngsters, who also use the corners as a place to meet up with friends.

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.
