On September 21, 1973, the Democratic Republic of Vietnam and Japan signed a diplomatic document, establishing official relations between the two countries. Since then, the relationship between Vietnam and Japan has been increasingly strengthened and consolidated. Japan is currently Vietnam's leading economic partner, the largest ODA donor, the second largest labor cooperation partner, the third largest investor and tourism partner, and the fourth largest trade partner of Vietnam. The two countries are closely cooperating in many key areas such as transport infrastructure and high-quality human resource training. Both countries are currently working together to bring the Vietnam-Japan extensive strategic partnership to a new level, deeper, more substantial and more effective.
Towards the 50th anniversary of the establishment of Vietnam-Japan diplomatic relations (1973-2023), and to review the research achievements and cooperation between Vietnam and Japan in the fields of social sciences and humanities, the University of Social Sciences and Humanities in collaboration with the Vietnam-Japan University under the Vietnam National University, Hanoi, jointly organized the international scientific conference "Vietnam-Japan Relations: Past - Present - Future".
