Nam went to India to learn solar engineering skills and helped bring light to dozens of households in her village.
Nam was chosen with other four ethnic women in the northern province of Thanh Hoa to attend a six-month training course at Barefoot College in India in 2015 under a project that focuses on creating opportunities for poor women to learn about solar energy.
