Hai Phong City aims to build itself into one of the country’s leading centres for education and training; in the immediate term, by 2026, it seeks to meet the conditions for recognition as a provincial-level “Learning Community” and to join UNESCO’s Global Network of Learning Cities in 2027.

The Ha Noi People’s Committee held a ceremony on January 29 at Van Mieu – Quoc Tu Giam (the Temple of Literature) in Ha Noi to receive UNESCO’s recognition of the capital as a member of the Global Network of Learning Cities.

Ha Noi is among the 72 cities from 46 countries named members of UNESCO’s Global Network of Learning Cities on December 4.
