The workshop was attended by leaders of the University of Social Sciences and Humanities, Thai Binh University, scientists from Seoul National University, National University of Singapore and a number of domestic universities and academies.
At the workshop, scientists emphasized that today's world is more connected and interdependent than ever. The boundaries between economics, politics, law, international relations and governance are increasingly blurred. Every decision made in one area will have far-reaching impacts on other areas. Currently, Vietnam is carrying out the most powerful administrative reform since the 1986 renovation with the streamlining of the apparatus, merging administrative agencies and localities to form a two-tier local government model. New research on economics, politics, law, international relations and local governance will be important theoretical and practical bases, contributing to advising ministries, sectors and localities in the new context of the country.
Assoc. Prof. Dr. Dang Thi Thu Huong - Vice Principal of University of Social Sciences and Humanities delivered the opening speech of the workshop.

According to scientists, the global picture is undergoing profound and complex changes, marked by increasing strategic competition between major powers, the rise of protectionism, ongoing aid conflicts, and the emergence of non-traditional security threats such as climate change. At the same time, the rapid development of digital technology is promoting the formation and promotion of the emergence of a circular economy.
These developments require a rethinking of governance models and policy frameworks towards inclusiveness and sustainability. Vietnam is now at the threshold of a new historical period, shaped by macroeconomic processes, a pivoting diplomatic structure and a comprehensive national vision, with the goal of becoming an upper-middle-income country by 2030 and a developed, high-income country by 2045.
Deepening international integration and the implementation of agreements such as CPTPP, EVFTA and RCEP are changing Vietnam’s legal, economic and governance systems. This transformation requires continuous innovation, policy reform and strengthening of international integration capacity at both national and local levels.
Associate Professor Dr. Pham Quoc Thanh and Associate Professor Dr. Kim Yong Kyun (Director of Vietnam Center, Asia Center, Seoul National University) co-chaired the discussion session.
