As part of the programme celebrating the 45th anniversary of Vietnam-Sweden diplomatic ties, a photo contest entitled “Swedish innovation through Vietnamese lenses” was launched in Hanoi.
Addressing the launch ceremony, Nguyen Phuong Ha, deputy head of the International Cooperation Department under the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, said the contest seeks to promote bilateral relations between Vietnam and Sweden.
Contestants are encouraged to submit photos that vividly depict the use of Swedish innovations in the everyday life of Vietnamese people.
She expressed her hope that through the contest Vietnamese photography lovers will discover an innovative and dynamic Sweden and that will tighten friendship between the two nations.
To mark Vietnam’s National Day (September 2) this year, Ha said her ministry in collaboration with the Vietnamese embassy in Sweden will open an exhibition to introduce Vietnam’s handicraft products to the public in Sweden’s Stockholm capital.
Swedish ambassador to Vietnam Camilla Mellander stressed the important role of renovation in the process of economic growth in any nation. She also expressed her wish to contribute to promoting and developing an innovation culture in Vietnam.
She hoped that many Vietnamese people will actively respond to the photo contest, helping raise public awareness about mutual understanding and cooperation between the two nations.
The winner will receive a trip to Sweden where he/she visits the Swedish Museum of Photography and other destinations in Stockholm.
