CONNECTING THE COMMUNITY SPREADING KNOWLEDGE SUSTAINABLE ACTIONS

Connecting research and projects: Enhancing understanding of sustainable
development in Vietnam

Promoting the effectiveness of the Research pillar “Research Contribution for All - Research for
Community Benefit”, UEH has implemented 12 consulting contracts, transfers signed between
UEH and partners, 50 policy-research studies commissioned by government agencies, local
authorities; organized 19 international workshops, 3 national workshops, and specialized
reports, contributing importantly to current social issues; approved 82 projects (including 1
project at Nafosted level, 11 Departmental projects and equivalent, 70 University-level
projects); 10 State-level projects registered this year; 42 scientific research projects related to
Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) according to UEH’s orientation; 1297 student research
projects completed with 689 projects awarded; 127 registered student research projects and

initiatives focusing on new idea development, technology application, solutions for sustainable
development, circular economy, green living, zero waste, emission reduction, sustainable local
economic development, and published 481 research articles in international journals.

One of the notable highlights collaborating
with partners is the EU4Sustainability project
- the first project under the Jean Monnet
Actions of UEH - funded by the European
Union through the Erasmus program. As of

now, Vietnam has fewer than 10 higher
education institutions nationwide receiving
funding from the Jean Monnet Actions
project, and UEH is proud to be one of them.

After a year of implementation with universities and businesses, the project has prepared and
taught 7 courses for students and graduate students on topics: Sustainable development as a
global trend; Sustainable Development Goals in the European program; Sustainable finance and
investment of the European Union; Research on sustainable European society; Sustainable

development in the external relations of the European Union; Sustainable development and the
common principles of European Union law; The European Union's Green Protocol: prospects
and challenges.
