Empowering Future Leaders at RMIT University!

Our recent participation in the Common Purpose “Big Industry Challenge” at RMIT University Vietnam was an incredible opportunity to strengthen our commitment to SRH as an integral part of overall wellness and wellbeing.

DKT Mekong Regional Director, Rodrigo Portugues, engaged with a vibrant group of 120 RMIT students from Vietnam and Australia in Ho Chi Minh City, exploring the future of sexual and reproductive health together.

From insightful discussions to hands-on activities (the challenge was how to reconnect the OK condom brand with the youth of today), the event was a whirlwind of creativity, sharing and learning. We were thrilled to introduce students to our mission-driven organisation, giving them a behind-the-scenes look at how we tackle real-world SRH challenges in Vietnam, Cambodia and Laos.

The Small Group Conversation was a highlight, allowing students to connect closely with our mission/purpose and exchange strategic insights/ideas to continue improving access to and availability of high-quality, affordable SRH resources.

A huge thank you to RMIT University Vietnam, Common Purpose, and all the incredible students who actively participated!
