The “Outline of Vietnamese Culture”
The national conference will mention the theoretical and practical value of the “Outline of Vietnamese Culture”, the first platform on culture launched by the Communist Party of Vietnam, and affirmed that Vietnamese culture and people are the spiritual foundation and driving force for the national development.
The conference aims to popularise the historical significance and core theoretical and practical values as well as the influence of the document over the past eight decades.
The Outline of Vietnamese Culture was draft by General Secretary of the Communist Party of Vietnam's Central Committee Truong Chinh in 1943.
Prior to the conference, an exhibition themed 80-year Outline of Vietnamese Culture – Starting point and motivation for development will open.
Participants are expected to discuss the process of applying and promoting the values of the document throughout the history, and spotlight the cultural achievements that Vietnam has gained under the light of the document as well as the Party’s culture policy and development directions. They will also identify issues that need to be improved and supplemented during the implementation of the platform, in order to make Vietnamese culture thrive and build a modern culture with strong national identity./.
