From February 16 to 21, 2025, the Academy of Public Administration and Governance (APAG) sent representatives to attend the 2025 Spring School at Jamia Millia Islamia University in New Delhi, India. The event was jointly organized by GIZ India, Bangladesh, Germany, and Viet Nam, attracting the participation of 23 female students from GIZ’s partner universities.
Under the theme “Empowering Futures: Women, Artificial Intelligence, and the Future of Work,” the program provided a dynamic forum for experts and participants to discuss and exchange ideas on key issues such as gender equality, the impact of artificial intelligence on the labor market, and future career opportunities.
The Vietnamese delegation consisted of five members, representing several prestigious educational institutions, including the Academy of Public Administration and Governance, Vietnam Women’s Academy, National Economics University, University of Economics Ho Chi Minh City, and University of Social Sciences and Humanities.
Throughout the Spring School, participants not only gained updated knowledge from experts but also had the opportunity to engage in group work, in-depth discussions, and practical experience sharing. Innovative ideas were presented by student groups during the Closing Ceremony on February 20, 2025, showcasing new approaches to challenges and opportunities in the fast-evolving technological landscape.
The Spring School was not only an opportunity for participants to enhance their knowledge on global governance, digital transformation, and gender equality, but it also helped strengthen the close and effective collaboration between GIZ and its international partners.
