Over the last five years, in the spirit of "Solidarity, creativity, proactive integration, helping to develop Yen Bai province”, local women have upheld traditions, tapped into their potential and creativity, and enthusiastically taken part in patriotic emulation movements and campaigns, thereby helping to improve the awareness of 154,000 members at 1,394 women’s unions at the grassroots level.

Across Yen Bai, there are 195 exemplary collectives and individuals in studying and following late President Ho Chi Minh’s ideology, morality, and lifestyle.

Nearly 5,400 more households have met all the eight criteria, raising the province’s total number to over 108,500 - equivalent to 78 percent of the membership.

As many as 588 cooperative groups, 24 cooperatives, and 14 businesses owned by women have been helped to be established. More than 1,300 women have also received aid to start a business.
