Website honoring Heroic Vietnamese Mothers launched
(VOVWORLD) - A website featuring the portraits and stories of more than 3,000 Heroic Vietnamese Mothers was launched on Friday at the Southern Women's Museum in Ho Chi Minh City, in commemoration of the 50th anniversary of national reunification (April 30).
The website, at https://chandungme.vn/, has been developed by the Municipal Geographic Information System Application Centre since 2020, showcasing portraits by artist Dang Ai Viet during her journey across Vietnam since 2010.
The platform also provides stories behind the portraits. Viet said that digitizing these portraits is her way of preserving these sacred memories beyond the limitations of paper-based materials.
She considers the project a gift to younger generations, ensuring they remember the contributions made by these women for national independence and freedom.
