The future I want – Bảo tàng Phụ nữ Việt Nam

Introduction

What we need today is hope for future. A future that is healthier, cleaner, more equal and inclusive. In 2020, the United Nations celebrates its 75th anniversary. To celebrate this critical milestone, the UN organized UN75 Photo Contest – The Future I Want to put our focus on the people, listen to their needs, hopes and voices to shape the future we want where no one is left behind. The collection represents the voices of Vietnamese people through camera lens.
