In 2025, SCG in collaboration with the social enterprise Disability Research and Capacity Development (DrD) and social impact enterprise HaliCare, continued to implement the “SCG Learn to Earn - Empowering Skills, Creating Sustainable Livelihoods” project.
2025 Milestones: Reaching Dreams Ceremony
Marking significant progress of the project, a year-end event themed "Reaching Dreams" was held on December 23, 2025, to recognize the achievements of 50 trainees upon completing their intensive vocational training programs. By connecting participants with suitable employment opportunities, the project contributes to reducing social inequality and building an inclusive community where no one is left behind - fully aligned with SCG’s ESG 4 Plus strategy.
Speaking at the closing ceremony, Mr. Praween Wirotpan, General Director of SCG Vietnam Co., Ltd., representing SCG, shared: "At SCG, we believe everyone has unique capabilities. Diversity strengthens communities and drives sustainable development. That is why reducing social inequality is a core pillar of our ESG 4 Plus strategy - unlocking potential and enabling persons with disabilities to build confident, meaningful careers."
Representing strategic partner DrD, Mr. Nguyen Van Cu, Director of DrD, expressed his confidence: "SCG’s strong commitment and partnership have empowered us to further connect equal employment opportunities. The greatest value of this project lies in its positive mindset shift - businesses become more open and inclusive, while young people gain stronger confidence in their own capabilities. These outcomes form a solid foundation for our continued collaboration and the development of more impactful initiatives in the future."
A practical and effective training pathway
In 2025, the SCG Learn to Earn project focused on removing employment barriers for persons with disabilities through a series of practical training and job-matching activities. From one-on-one career counseling sessions to identify suitable pathways, to in-depth soft-skills training on interviews and workplace cultural integration, the program helped participants overcome psychological barriers and build the confidence needed to thrive in diverse working environments.
As a representative trainee, Mr. Nguyen Quoc Hieu shared emotionally: "Through this project, I realized that with the right skills and self-belief, anyone can take control of their own life. My current job not only provides income but also brings me happiness, knowing that I am living with purpose and being recognized by society. I sincerely thank SCG and its partners for helping turn my dream into reality."
With its ESG strategy, SCG will continue to implement projects aimed at reducing social inequality in Vietnam, contributing to a more inclusive and sustainable Vietnam.
