He also took the occasion to brief his host on a number of DAVIFO projects in Viet Nam, including community health projects in rural, remote and isolated areas, supporting vulnerable groups, especially women and children, among others.

The diplomat affirmed that the embassy will always accompany DAVIFO in these meaningful activities, jointly organize activities to promote people-to-people exchange, cultural and educational exchanges, enhance friendship and mutual understanding between the people of the two countries, especially in 2026 on the occasion of the 55th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between Viet Nam and Denmark (1971-2026), and the 50th anniversary of DAVIFO's establishment.
