Help Room to Read and Anh Duong raise $22,409 to support girls' empowerment in Vietnam!
Who is Room to Read?
Room to Read is a global organization transforming the lives of millions of children in low-income communities by focusing on literacy and gender equality in education. They work in collaboration with local communities to develop literacy skills and a habit of reading among primary school children and to ensure that girls can complete secondary school with the skills necessary to negotiate key life decisions. Room to Read has impacted 18.7 million children across more than 37,000 communities in 16 countries.
After more than a decade of work transforming the lives of students and their communities, Room to Read began to offer technical assistance and to share our expertise and resources with partner organizations. We provide training materials, workshops, and monitoring, to these partners in an effort to maximize the quality of their work and, in turn, to expand the benefit to children on an even larger scale through these partners.
With your support, Room to Read can effectively build the capacity of local organizations in Vietnam, both enhancing their work and shining a light on the importance of educating and supporting girls across the country.
Room to Read has identified two exceptional grassroots organizations in Vietnam to help carry out elements of its innovative girls’ education model, including Anh Duong.
Who is Anh Duong?
Anh Duong is a grassroots organization in Vietnam focused on serving vulnerable communities in Hau Giang province. It does this through comprehensive programming that focuses on gender equality in education as well as community health projects. To-date, Anh Duong has reached approximately 500 teachers and 32,000 students through their initiatives, which include trainings for women and girls around a variety of topics such as domestic violence and sexual health education.
Room to Read and Anh Duong in Partnership
Room to Read will partner with Anh Duong to provide technical assistance and help develop life skills training lessons for girls in 9th grade, a key year to support girls as they make the transition into secondary school. The trainings will cover topics such as sexual health, safety, goal setting, the importance of education and career preparation. Anh Duong and Room to Read will also create a new life skills training module on conflict management to address bullying and violence in schools.
Room to Read will share their best practices in terms of life skills curriculum development and training methods with Anh Duong through a series of trainings with Anh Duong’s staff. Anh Duong will work with 90 teachers and 1,000 students in three schools in Vi Thuy District, Hau Giang Province in 2020, to initiate this work.
Budget for joint project: $22,409
• $2,217: Develop Life Skills Curriculum and workshop to review Anh Duong's current life skills curriculum and revise it to be more inclusive of gender sensitivity. This will include life skills sessions on conflict management for teachers and students, including guidebooks, session plans for teachers, and handbooks for students.
• $2,583: Room to Read will provide five days of training of trainers sessions to Anh Duong's education program staff and key teachers (at three schools) on all curriculum.
• $3,170: Anh Duong staff will provide training for all teachers (90), from three schools on Conflict management skills and gender-sensitive life skills. Room to Read staff will co-facilitate.
• $157: Teachers demonstrate workshop at school with the supervision of Anh Duong staff (at each of the three schools).
• $2,043: Teachers provide life skills training on Conflict management for students (approximately 1,000).
• $483: Life Skills workshop event. One half day of outdoor life skills activities will take place, conducted by teachers but co-facilitated and advised by Room to Read.
• $354: Anh Duong meets with schools to assess the results from each schools' performance.
• $187: Review meeting between Anh Duong and Room to Read.
• $4,239: Anh Duong Management Fees.
• $6,976: Room to Read staff costs (includes project management, workshop development and participation, meeting time, review of materials, transportation, etc).

“Before, I was shy. I always stood in the corner of the room because I did not believe in myself. Thanks to Room to Read’s life skills camps, I was given opportunities to participate and present during activities. I learned from other girls and discovered it’s good to speak up. Every girl needs life skills to make important decisions in life -- decisions that they can look back and proud of, without any regrets.”
