The above goal was proposed and discussed by experts at the conference "UNESCO Creative Cities Network and the ability to transform cultural resources in Hue" organized by the Vietnam National Institute of Culture and Arts coordinated with the Institute for Development Studies of Thua Thien Hue province on the morning of September 22 in Hue city.

On the afternoon of September 22, within the framework of the Hue Innovation Day 2023 Forum, the Vietnam National Institute of Culture and Arts Studies collaborated with the Thua Thien Hue Institute for Development Studies to organize a scientific workshop entitled “Thua Thien Hue - A distinctive cultural heritage city of Vietnam, sustainable development through green growth, and adaptation to climate change.”

This project is in keeping with the province's resources and socio-economic development orientation. Also, it is believed to be able to exploit and promote the strengths of the culture and people of Hue as well as developing cultural industries.

Mr. Christian Manhart, Representative in Vietnam of the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO), praised Vietnam's success in connecting tangible heritage with intangible heritage, and affirmed that UNESCO would continue to work closely with Vietnam for the country's sustainable development.

Upon the completion of the mission of preserving and promoting cultural values, Hue Festival is performing its larger role of contributing to socio-economic development.
