Speakers at the event
Finnish Ambassador to Vietnam Ilkka-Pekka Simila said the talk aimed to foster Vietnam- Finland education cooperation and share Finland’s educational experience with Vietnamese education policy makers, educators, parents and children.
Pham Chi Cuong, Deputy Head of the Ministry of Education’s Department of International Cooperation said the “Finnish Lesson 2.0” book, which explains the successful story of Finnish education over the past four decades, is useful to Vietnam and its education reform.
