October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, an essential time to focus on the ongoing battle against breast cancer. At Valency Vietnam, we recognize the importance of this month and took proactive steps to educate our workforce, which is comprised of 61% women. We organized a series of informative sessions aimed at raising awareness about this critical health issue. During this session, our employees learned about the significance of early detection, recognizing risk factors, and implementing effective preventive measures.

One of the key topics discussed was self-testing practices, which empower women to take charge of their health and be proactive in monitoring their bodies. By fostering a culture of awareness and proactive health management, Valency Vietnam is not just supporting our employees; we are also contributing to the broader fight against breast cancer.

One of the highlights of the session was sharing of personal stories related to breast cancer by the employees. Encouraging open conversations about breast health and providing resources for education can make a significant difference. As we come together this October, we reaffirm our commitment to promoting awareness, facilitating early detection, and ultimately, improving outcomes for women everywhere. Together, we can create a supportive environment that encourages vigilance, education, and empowerment in the face of this disease.

October is the month dedicated to the fight against breast cancer. During the month, numerous activities are organized to raise awareness and fight against this disease. With this in mind, Valency International Trading was also committed to organize a breast cancer awareness campaign in the village of Attinguié.

To mark the occasion, we organized a walk through the village streets for a bit of physical exercise. We then met up in the village square to get the ball rolling. The representative of the ESG department, Miss POUOSSI Vanessa, set the scene by explaining the reasons that brought us together and the benefits that Valency has brought to the village since its installation on the site.

The 2nd Deputy Village Chief then thanked the women for their mobilization and Valency for its interest in the well-being of the population. Doctor KARAMOKO, took the floor to present breast cancer, its manifestations, means of prevention and consequences. The participants asked questions for a better understanding, and the Doctor answered each one.

Mr ZASSAUD Hervé, representing the Director, reiterated Valency's support for the village and its people. We parted in good spirits after taking a family photo to immortalize the moment.

The right to food is recognized as a fundamental human right by the United Nations and international law, essential for survival, growth, and development. Access to adequate nutrition is crucial for both physical and mental well-being, making food security a priority for vulnerable populations. In alignment with the UN's Sustainable Development Goal 2 (Zero Hunger), efforts to promote nutrition and food access are critical to ensuring the well-being of communities, especially those at risk.

In celebration of World Food Day, Valency Agro took a proactive approach to addressing food insecurity by distributing free food and drinks to 100 individuals, including low-income families, children, and the elderly. This initiative not only provided immediate relief but also raised awareness about the importance of food security and proper nutrition. Through this effort, Valency Agro demonstrated its commitment to corporate social responsibility (CSR) and the broader goal of community development.

The event had a significant impact by promoting awareness of hunger issues while supporting the well-being of vulnerable populations. Valency Agro’s initiative highlighted its dedication to addressing malnutrition and hunger, reinforcing the company's role in fostering sustainable, community-oriented solutions.
