Turning cultural strength into a driving force for national development
The Party Committee for Mass Mobilization, the Fatherland Front and central mass organizations and the Central Committee of the Vietnam Fatherland Front organized a scientific conference "Promoting cultural strength and great national unity in the new era".
The conference aims to clarify the relationship between culture and national unity, identify the role and responsibility of the Vietnam Fatherland Front and member organizations in the new development stage; and at the same time propose solutions to implement Resolution No. 80-NQ/TW of the Politburo on the development of Vietnamese culture.
Speaking at the workshop, Mr. Tran Thang - Member of the Standing Committee of the Party Committee for Mass Mobilization, the Fatherland Front and Central Agencies, Vice Chairman of the Central Committee of the Vietnam Fatherland Front said: patriotism, compatriotism, and the spirit of compassion are the values that create a foundation to connect all classes of people. Great solidarity creates an environment and mobilizes resources for cultural values to be preserved, created and developed.
However, the process of urbanization, labor migration, digital transformation and international integration are changing community life. Differences in living conditions, needs and access to resources raise the requirement to strengthen dialogue, ensure legitimate rights and opportunities to enjoy culture for people.
In his presentation, Comrade Nguyen Minh Chung - Head of the Propaganda and Training Department of the Party Committee for Mass Mobilization, the Fatherland Front and Central Agencies emphasized the requirement that streamlined organizational structure must go hand in hand with improving the capacity to gather people, coordinate actions effectively and be more attached to community life.
Notably, according to the presentation of the Social Work Committee, Vietnam Fatherland Front Central Committee, the whole country has 637,534 people's self-management models with more than 23.4 million members. On average, over 92.5% of residential areas organize the Great National Unity Festival; over 72% organize "Great Unity Meal".
These results show the role of the Front in promoting the spirit of self-management, mutual support and community cohesion from the grassroots level.
