Female officers and members heightened their responsibility and determination to complete all assigned missions.
Regarding orientations and tasks in 2025, the Board for Women Advancement defined that it should continue to enhance information dissemination and education to raise troops and people’s awareness of gender equality and gender-based violence prevention and response.

Le Quang Minh required the unit to strictly implement the guidelines, viewpoints and policies of all levels; enhance leadership and direction of the party committees, political commissars, commanding officers and the Board for Women Advancement at all levels in implementing policies and laws related to gender equality.
