VTV.vn - The Ministry of Labor, Invalids and Social Affairs held a dialogue with 125 delegates representing Youth Union members at the 11th National Youth Union Congress on Sunday.

With the theme "The Youth and Start-ups", delegates discussed career orientation; labor market information, and how to support young start ups. Vietnam's youth population stands at 24 million, accounting for 44% of the country's labour force. However, the rate of unemployment in young people is triple the general unemployment rate. The forum was set up to seek solutions from youth delegates in order to create more job opportunities for the future.
