</i><i><span lang="EN-US">an Initiative of the Australian Government managed by Abt Associates Pty Ltd, is calling for proposals from organizations in Vietnam to implement<b> creative social media campaigns
</b>in Vietnam to positively influence specific gender norms among targeted urban millennials in direct response to the COVID-19 pandemic.</span></i><o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto"><i><span lang="EN-US">The campaigns will use social media to promote positive models of behaviour in areas where men and women often have stereotyped roles. For example, men and
women sharing housework and caring responsibilities; women and men in careers not usually associated with their sex. The campaigns will be informed by market or audience research that explores the latest situation regarding specific roles and expectations
of women and men, particularly identifying areas of ‘positive deviance’ that have resulted from the restrictions imposed by the pandemic (eg men sharing more caring responsibilities). Campaigns will run from 12 to 22 months.</span></i><o:p></o:p></p>
