The goal of the movement is to popularize basic digital knowledge and skills to the people, ensuring an "all-people, comprehensive, no one is left behind" approach.

The Ho Chi Minh City Party Committee emphasized that the "digital education movement" is a testament to the city's determination to build a learning society and digital citizens. In the 2025-2026 period, the Ho Chi Minh City Party Committee aims to focus on 3 main focuses.
