After facing the challenges of Covid, our team in Vietnam are excited to move forward with a fresh approach. Our objectives for 2024 encompass a comprehensive approach aimed at initiating significant changes in Vietnam's care landscape. Primarily, we seek to foster a deeper understanding among high-level government officials about the paramount importance of family-based care for orphans and vulnerable children, such as long-term foster care. This involves equipping local authorities and frontline care/social workers in Vietnam with the necessary knowledge and skills related to the family placement process, empowering them to move children out of institutional care and into local families.
Furthermore, our efforts extend to practical training sessions and effective case consultations tailored for institution staff and social workers. These sessions aim to equip them with the expertise required to implement and oversee successful family placement initiatives. In line with this, we're actively engaging in targeted awareness raising campaigns to promote family-based care for orphans and vulnerable children, attract capable family carers, and ensure their thorough training.
Our commitment also involves overseeing and facilitating the placement of children into local nurturing families, a pivotal step towards ensuring their well-being and development within supportive family environments. Alongside this, we're dedicated to providing specialized training that equips family carers with the essential skills and knowledge needed to effectively care for children facing unique circumstances.
Our efforts will culminate in organizing a focused conference that brings together key stakeholders, fostering collaboration and advocacy for the cause of family care. This conference will serve as a platform to amplify awareness, share insights, and encourage collective action towards realizing our vision of a family-oriented care system in Vietnam.
Through these concerted efforts and strategic initiatives, we aim to lay the foundation for the transformative shift towards family-based care, ensuring that every child in Vietnam finds a nurturing, loving family environment conducive to their growth and well-being.
