More than 200 delegates are expected to attend a national scientific conference in Ha Noi on October 10 to discuss ways to promote Vietnamese cultural values as an important driving force for national development in the new era, a press briefing heard on October 5.
Politburo Member and Standing Member of the Party Central Committee’s Secretariat and Head of the Central Steering Committee for the Development of Vietnamese Culture Tran Cam Tu on September 25 asked for concerted implementation of Resolution No. 80-NQ/TW on cultural development and related Party policies, with practical solutions needed to address bottlenecks and drive major shifts in the sector.
On April 24, the National Assembly adopted Resolution No. 28/2026/QH16 on the development of Viet Nam’s culture, containing many breakthrough measures, including permission for the pilot establishment of Cultural and Arts Funds under a public-private partnership model.
Deputies at the first session of the 16th National Assembly discussed a draft resolution on developing Vietnamese culture on April 22, expressing strong consensus on the need to promptly institutionalise Party guidelines, particularly Resolution No. 80-NQ/TW of the Politburo.
The Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism is seeking public comments on the draft Resolution of the National Assembly on a number of breakthrough mechanisms and policies for the development of Vietnamese culture.
In the context as the country is entering a new era — the era of national rise — building and perfecting cultural institutions is not only an urgent requirement but also a top-priority task.
Vietnamese culture is the crystallisation of the nation’s finest values forged over thousands of years of nation-building and defence. It is a vital endogenous resource that shapes the intellect, soul, spirit and resilience of the Vietnamese people.
