‘Exchanging Dialogues’ is one of the activity to celebrate the 45th anniversary of Vietnam – Netherlands ties.

Through creating a joint platform for dialogue between two countries, this project aims to highlight topics such as culture, history and environment. By creating both research and conversation based artworks, the organizing boards and participants hope to generate new ways of thinking about those issues.

The final exhibition is an outcome of the dialogues and collaborations between students from both Universities, and an effort from two sides to pay more attentions to people-to-people relations.

According to Dutch Ambassador to Vietnam, Nienke Trooster, student exchanges, in addition to tourism flows, cooperation between social organizations and knowledge institutions, will inevitably promote positive ties between both countries.

‘Exchanging Dialogues’ will open for visitors until April 1 at Vietnam University of Fine Arts, 42 Yet Kieu street, Hanoi.
