In the era of renewal and international integration, the role of the Youth Union continues to be reaffirmed. Today’s Vietnamese youth are dynamic and innovative in study, scientific research and entrepreneurship, while also playing a leading role in socio-economic development and safeguarding national sovereignty.

The 95th anniversary of the Ho Chi Minh Communist Youth Union (March 26, 1931 – March 26, 2026) marks not only a proud historical milestone but also an occasion to reflect on the dedication, growth and contributions of generations of Vietnamese youth. Under the Party’s leadership, the Union has continuously grown into a pioneering force across all fronts, from production and study to innovation and national defence.
