Promoting the volunteer image of Vietnamese youth
At the forum, First Secretary of the Central Youth Union Bui Quang Huy expressed his joy because this year the number of questions sent to the program by union members and young people was 3 times more than last year (more than 10,000 questions). That proves that you have paid much attention and expectation to the Youth Union organization.
"Within a very limited time, the Secretariat will respond and share as many opinions as possible. In addition, this year's program also designed a section for young people to contribute ideas to the Union. We really hope to receive many ideas and solutions in today's forum," said Mr. Huy.
Attending the forum, Mr. Pham Quoc Viet - captain of the FAS Angel First Aid Support Team - shared that over the past 4 years, the group has supported and performed more than 17,000 first aid cases for accident victims.
"I would like to ask if the Central Youth Union has any activities or solutions to connect self-established volunteer groups and official volunteer groups so that this combination will promote the strengths of the groups and participate in supporting the community in the most effective way?", Mr. Viet asked.
Answering this question, Mr. Nguyen Ngoc Luong, Standing Secretary of the Central Youth Union, said that this is also an issue that the Youth Union has been raising in recent times. The Central Youth Union has also advised the Government to issue a project to develop youth volunteer activities. Currently, the Youth Union has chosen the "Youth Volunteer" movement as one of the three main movements for the 2022 - 2027 term, with many new contents, the most prominent of which is the policy of "3 links": linking forces, linking localities, linking communities, to mobilize the best resources.
Besides, volunteer activities also need to be improved and adapted to the new era, which is the application of information technology.
"Currently, we only need a phone to know the information. Therefore, we need to promote technology to provide, exchange information and coordinate with volunteer networks in localities, connecting people who need support with people who have support sources. The Youth Union and Association will continue to improve volunteer activities, continue to build a good image of Vietnamese youth," said Mr. Luong.
Sharing history the young way
Known for his videos about history, Ly Huu Truong, Ha Giang - owner of the TikTok channel "History School", was also present at the forum.

Truong shared that although history is not his forte, and sharing history with young people is also very difficult, after only 2 videos he has received a lot of attention from young people.
"I realized that Gen Z - we don't dislike history, but rather have a more intuitive approach. For example, the recent movie "Peach, Pho and Piano" created a very good effect in spreading patriotism and educating the youth about traditions.
I really hope that in the future, the Youth Union will have more solutions to educate about history, patriotism, and revolutionary traditions of the nation. I also really hope that you will guide me and my friends who create content on social networks to contribute our efforts to the Youth Union to carry out that task," Truong said.
Also following the products on the "History School" channel, Mr. Nguyen Minh Triet, Secretary of the Central Youth Union, shared that he was very happy because the School's TikTok channel has helped many young people understand more about the history of their country.
Recently, there have been many projects that young people have carried out that have spread positively, such as groups of young people restoring photos of martyrs; adding music to historical videos to make them more accessible.
"I hope that in the coming time, young people will increase propaganda products about revolutionary traditions through modern and new tools like what Truong and some other young people are doing, so that young people will increasingly know about history, understand history and love history more," Triet shared.
Mr. Triet also said that through monitoring, the details of the channel "History School" about the sayings of historical figures are currently at episode 40. In today's forum, can Truong share to enrich the channel's data warehouse?
The school shared two quotes from General Vo Nguyen Giap about dedication. They are: “The greatest happiness of a military leader is to be with soldiers on the battlefield”; “Every day I live, I live for my country”.
Foreign languages - the key for young people to go far
Once famous with the nickname "hot girl of 7 languages" with a clip speaking 7 languages, MC Khanh Vy shared her pride when being present at the forum. Vy shared that young people always need ideals and the desire to pursue and contribute to the country. In the context of integration, foreign languages are no longer skills to get a degree, but also a powerful support tool for young people to go further.
"So in the future, how will the Union support the foreign language proficiency improvement program?", Khanh Vy asked.

Answering this question, Secretary of the Central Youth Union, Mr. Nguyen Tuong Lam said that improving foreign language skills in general and English in particular for union members and young people is a very important task.
Therefore, in 2018, the Central Youth Union Secretariat issued the "Project to improve English proficiency for Vietnamese youth in the period 2018 - 2022", with the aim of promoting the spirit of learning English for Vietnamese youth, as well as creating an environment for youth to practice, study and improve their English proficiency.
After one term of implementation, the project has attracted nearly 12 million union members and young people to participate in activities to improve English proficiency. The project is still being implemented.
"The goal is to support 10 million youth union members to improve their foreign languages by 2030. In particular, it is necessary to raise awareness of the need for foreign languages. When you realize the need, you will proactively seek learning channels. At the same time, the Union will continue to build foreign language spaces such as foreign language clubs, etc.," said Mr. Lam.
The forum was lively with thousands of questions sent in by children and members from all over the country. The Central Youth Union Secretariat shared solutions to create an environment to accompany young people in scientific research, knowledge enrichment, care and education for children. At the same time, they took time to listen to suggestions sent to the Central Youth Union by members and youth.
