This concert featured promising and outstanding young female soloists of Vietnam to connect people, women and men, boys and girls from different socio-cultural backgrounds in different parts of Vietnam and in different parts of the world.

The concert will be aired on the UNFPA Vietnam fanpage at https://www.facebook.com/unfpa.vietnam at 8 p.m. on August 6 and at 3 p.m. on August 7.

The concert aimed to raise public awareness and increase the value of the girl child within the context of addressing domestic violence and gender-biased sex selection in Vietnam.
