Following 10 years in academe in Paris and Saigon/Ho Chi Minh City, Madam Ninh served as a career diplomat specializing in global issues - international peace and security, development, environment, governance, and human rights - and multilateral institutions before being elected to Viet Nam's National Assembly where she continued to actively work to build bridges of understanding and cooperation between Viet Nam and the world, more particularly highlighting the National Assembly's integral role in Viet Nam's "Doi Moi" (Reform and Renewal) and democratization. Madam Ninh has been awarded the French Legion d'Honneur (Commandeur), the Belgian Order of Leopold II, and the Vietnamese Medal of Labor – First Class. The Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology (RMIT) has conferred upon her an Honorary Doctorate of Social Science. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedxTED is supported by ads and partners
