This year, RMIT Vietnam celebrates Women's Day 2024 under the UN Women’s theme Count Her In: Invest in Women. Accelerate Progress, which examines the pathways to greater economic inclusion for women and girls everywhere.
Our events champion the idea that women can attain anything, achieve success, and challenge societal stereotypes through the pillars of Learn: Empowering Through Education, Earn: Financial Independence, and Lead: Breaking Stereotypes and Shaping the Future.
Explore events and activities on campus and online on the day and learn how you can get involved.
RMIT Office for Research & Innovation will organise the SDG (Sustainable Development Goals) Research Seminar Series on International Women's Day, 8 March 2024.
Open to RMIT staff and students, this is an opportunity for our RMIT community to engage in research topics related to the implementation of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals in Vietnam and what we as an RMIT community are doing to contribute.
