Short Description 

Aiming to promote conversations and discussions amongst young people of Vietnam, in the summer of 2008, a group of students in Hanoi and students studying overseas initiated the Vietnam Youth Forum project.

From its first days, the Vietnam Youth Forum has provided an off-campus, non-traditional classroom experience for young people. It has enabled them to discuss, share, learn, connect and generate fresh ideas and microscopic solutions for various issues of Vietnam. Activities and events are organized for and by young people aged between 16 and 22. Furthermore, the Forum offers workshop training to develop the skills of its participants so that they can carry out meaningful changes in their communities through their independent projects.

The Vietnam Youth Forum 2013 is the sixth annual forum of the VYF project which will take place this summer in Hanoi.  

Our Goal

The mission of the Vietnam Youth Forum includes

●   Provide the Vietnamese youth with background knowledge of social issues, raise their awareness of global environment and encourage them to learn and contribute to their communities

●   Create a link between guest speakers (usually experts and pioneers in different fields) and Vietnamese youth to assist the exchange and discussion of outstanding issues of the year.

●   Develop and enhance essential skills of leadership, organization, presentation, communication, and team-work.

●   Establish an environment where young people can express their ideas and opinions, as well as propose initiatives and solutions to current social problems

●   Encourage and nourish youth motivation and inspiration to carry out new projects directly benefiting the community

●   Forge a network of future leaders with a firm commitment to their communities

●   Promote VYF values, thus strengthening the link between VYF and Vietnamse youth

 

Highlights of the program:

- VYF is one of the first forums for youth and organized totally by youth, allowing young Vietnamese people to express their views and learn about issues of local, national, and global importance.

- VYF's candidates are all young Vietnamese people who are living in Vietnam or studying abroad. They are proactive and curious youth, who are interested in social issues and want to create changes in their communities.

- The content of the forum covers many fields and revolves around the Forum's main theme each year in order to provide an effective and focused approach to specific topics.

- VYF activities are organized with the consultancy of notable advisors and guest speakers such as: Mr. Duong Trung Quoc - Historian and Member of the National Assembly, Ms. Pham Chi Lan - Senior Economist, Mr. Tran Viet Duc - General Partner of IDG Ventures Vietnam, Dr. Nguyen Huu Ninh - Environmentalist...,

- The ultimate purpose of the forum is not only to discuss and share experiences, but also to inspire and enforce the post-Forum community projects. This is the purpose of the Inspiration for Action Day, which offers participants methods to a deeper understanding of personal preferences, tendencies, weaknesses and strengths.
