As many as 182 individuals with outstanding achievements in the “Learning never ends” movement were present at the ceremony.

 An overview of the ceremony.

Initiated by the Central Committee of the Vietnam Association of Learning Promotion, the movement is to encourage students to follow Uncle Ho's teachings to study harder and overcome difficulties in order to gain excellent academic achievements.

For adults, the movement encourages them to materialise what they have learned and set bright examples of lifelong learning among the community.

 Chairwoman of the Vietnam Association for Learning Promotion Nguyen Thi Doan speaks at the event.

Over the past years, Son La has worked to promote Uncle Ho's teaching that "Learning never ends" among the public, while focusing on developing learning promotion funds at all levels, and mobilising the support from different economic sectors to education and training.

Currently, it counts 88.2% of families recognised as “learning family”; 78.5% of learning communities, 92.8% of learning units, 73.2% of learning clans; and 61.3% of learning citizens.

In 2022 and 2023, the province presented "Learning never ends" scholarships to nearly 400 outstanding adults and students.

Addressing the ceremony, Doan asked Son La to further put in place the Party Central Committee’s Resolution No. 29-NQ/TW dated November 4, 2013 on fundamental and comprehensive innovation in education and training, serving industrialisation and modernisation in a socialist-oriented market economy and international integration.

She highlighted comprehensive innovation in terms of textbook, teaching methods, and digital transformation in teaching, saying Son La should strive to preserve the Global Learning City title.

For the outstanding individuals honoured, Doan said, they need to make more contributions to local development.

At the ceremony, 182 individuals who are outstanding farmers; those bestowed with the titles of meritorious artists, associate professors, doctors, and meritorious teachers; students with good academic achievements; and athletes that won international and regional medals, were honoured and presented scholarships worth over 350 million VND (13,752 USD) in total.
