In his remarks, VUFO Chairman Phan Anh Son said under the Party's leadership and the joint efforts of the entire political system and people, last year, Vietnam obtained great achievements in socio-economic development. 2023 was also a successful year for foreign affairs in general, including people to people diplomacy.
The union has actively supported foreign NGOs in Vietnam in implementing administrative procedures and connecting with Vietnamese localities, ministries and agencies. Foreign NGOs contributed nearly 228 million USD to projects and programmes in Vietnam in 2023.
To promote its achievements in the coming time, the VUFO will continue to innovate the mindset, methods of organisation and content of people-to-people diplomacy activities, maintain and expand a reputable and widespread network of partners in the regions, and improve the effectiveness of cooperation and support for activities of foreign NGOs, Son said.
