“After summarizing 15 years of implementing Resolution 23-NQ/TW of the Politburo (10th tenure) on continuing to build and develop literature and arts in the new period, on June 21, 2024, the Politburo issued Conclusion No. 84-KL/TW on continuing to implement Resolution No. 23-NQ/TU. The birth of this Conclusion not only demonstrates the deep interest of the Party and State in the field of culture and arts, but also reflects the dynamism, richness, and novelty but also certain complexities, especially the negative impacts of the market mechanism; of the process of strong and extensive international integration; of the digital transformation process; of artificial intelligence (AI). The new period requires propaganda, cultural, artistic, educational and training agencies, press and publishing agencies to further strengthen theoretical research and systematically and in-depth practical summaries to further enhance the effectiveness of consulting and advising the Party and State at all levels to improve their leadership, direction and management capacity, in order to strongly and firmly develop the country's literature and arts in the coming years," Associate Professor, Dr. Nguyen The Ky emphasized.

During the 3-day training, the trainees will study 5 topics: "Continuing to implement Resolution No. 23 - NQ/TW of the 10th Politburo and Conclusion No. 84-KL/TW of the 13th Politburo on Continuing to build and develop literature and art in the new period"; "Literature and art after 50 years of national reunification, innovation and development: Achievements, issues and development orientations"; "Literature and art with the development of cultural industry in Vietnam"; "The role of architecture in Vietnam with the development of the country - Current trends of innovation and integration"; "Vietnamese literature and art abroad with the mission of healing, connecting and promoting cultural and artistic values in Vietnam".
