Nguyen Trong Nghia, head of the Central Propaganda Committee, emphasized the importance of issuing a National Strategy on intellectuals to promote young intellectuals and improve policy mechanisms. During a visit and working session at the Vietnam Union of Science and Technology Associations (VUSTA) in Hanoi, he commended VUSTA for its role in bridging member associations with Party and state agencies.
Despite VUSTA’s achievements in attracting a large number of scientific and technological intellectuals, Nghia pointed out that there were still challenges such as attracting young intellectuals and overseas Vietnamese intellectuals, as well as a lack of mechanisms for research and technology application. The Head of the Central Propaganda Department stressed the increasing demands on intellectuals due to advancements in technology and emphasized the need to align with the resolutions of the 13th Party Congress.
To address these bottlenecks, Nghia proposed coordinating ministries to issue a National Strategy on intellectuals. He highlighted the importance of international integration and the role of intellectuals in advancing science and technology. Dr. Phan Xuan Dung, President of VUSTA, reported on the organization’s activities and highlighted its innovative scientific and technological achievements.
The meeting also addressed issues with policy mechanisms and financial difficulties faced by public research institutes. Deputy Minister of Science and Technology, Tran Hong Thai, emphasized the significance of developing science, technology, and innovation in line with the Party’s orientation towards socio-economic development until 2030.
The draft National Strategy for developing intellectuals until 2030 is currently under development aiming to overcome limitations, leverage opportunities, and strengthen contributions from Vietnamese intellectual team towards socio-economic development until 2030.
