In a visit to the University, the General Secretary of the Communist Party of Vietnam (CPV) Central Committee, To Lam, signed several cooperative agreements supporting academic collaboration with two University research centres and formally launching a scholarship scheme for Vietnamese students.
Professor Irene Tracey, Vice-Chancellor of the University of Oxford, said: ‘I am delighted to welcome to Oxford the General Secretary of Vietnam and our colleagues from there to affirm and deepen the ties between our University and Vietnam’s leading institutions. Oxford has a proud tradition of global partnership — of sharing knowledge across borders to advance education, discovery and public good. These new agreements reflect our shared commitment to nurturing talent, supporting innovation, and addressing the challenges that face our world today. We look forward to working together in the spirit of friendship and mutual learning, strengthening the bridge between Oxford and Vietnam for years to come.’
The Tam Anh Research Institute has signed a Memorandum of Understanding with the International Health and Tropical Medicine Group from the Nuffield Department of Medicine, establishing the Tam Anh Oxford Partnership (TOP). The partnership promotes equitable collaboration through joint training, research and capacity building, with a focus on innovations in diagnostics and preventive healthcare for non-communicable diseases.
