Administrative Deputy Minister Chen Der-hwa Hosted a Press Conference of “International Girls’ Day”
The United Nations (UN) declared October 11th to be the International Girls’ Day in 2012. In July of 2013, Taiwan also identified October 11th to be Taiwan’s Girls’ Day, and the MOE then held a special press conference on that day. Four female representatives from various walks of life shared their life stories at the conference, serving as positive role models for Taiwan’s girls. In the picture, Administrative Deputy Minister Chen Der-hwa (陳德華)、Department of Student Affairs and Special Education Director General Liu Chung-ching (劉仲成), and the four female representatives appeal to our society to support investment in girls, the empowerment of girls, and providing girls with equal opportunities for development and self-fulfillment.
