ភាសាខ្មែរAs part of its mission to promote sexual and reproductive health education among youth, DKT Mekong, in collaboration with Vietnam Health Magazine, continues the Fiesta Tour – “Chuyện Khó Nói To” (Speak Up About the Unspoken) across universities in Vietnam.
Recent stops include:
-
Phenikaa University – Hanoi
-
Can Tho University – Can Tho
-
Tay Do University – Can Tho
Empowering students through accurate knowledge and open dialogue
In a society where conversations around sexual and reproductive health can still be sensitive, Fiesta Tour creates a safe and open platform where students can:
-
Access accurate and science-based information
-
Engage directly with medical experts
-
Ask honest questions about contraception, STI prevention, and sexual wellness
-
Participate in interactive games and practical condom-use demonstrations
This initiative encourages young people to speak up confidently, make informed decisions, and protect themselves and their partners responsibly.
Ms. Nguyen Thi Kim Oanh – Senior Partnership & Program Officer, DKT Mekong, shared: “Through the Fiesta Tour, we have the opportunity to directly connect with young people — especially Gen Z, who are and will continue to be the leaders of a new era. We believe that DKT Mekong’s vision — to build a world where every child is wanted, sexuality is understood as a healthy and joyful expression, and individuals have the freedom to make informed choices about their own bodies and futures — will be realized starting with today’s youth. Programs like Fiesta Tour not only provide scientific and practical knowledge, but also empower young people with confidence — helping them protect themselves, embrace healthy and respectful relationships, and spread a culture of responsible and positive sexual wellbeing within their communities.”
From Hanoi to Can Tho — expanding impact nationwide
-
Nearly 2,000 students joined the program at Phenikaa University, creating an energetic and inspiring atmosphere.
-
The enthusiasm continued at Can Tho University and Tay Do University, where students actively engaged in meaningful dialogue and learning.
Vibrant activities, laughter, Q&A moments, and student participation reaffirmed the importance and relevance of bringing reproductive health conversations to campuses.
Nguyễn Hoàng Đăng – Tourism & Travel Management student, Can Tho University: “I feel that this is a very meaningful and valuable program for university students, especially young people today. There is so much inaccurate information on social media, and we really need programs like this — with experts — to clarify these important topics.”
Trần Bảo Định – Faculty of Social Sciences & Communication: “After joining ‘Chuyện Khó Nói To’, I feel like a superhero who knows how to protect myself. The message is relatable, easy to understand, and very inspiring for me and other students here.”

-
Providing accessible, high-quality reproductive health solutions

Empowering the next generation with evidence-based knowledge
