Building the role model of the new era young generation is one of the three main tasks of the Hanoi Youth Union in implementing Program 06-CTr/TU of the Hanoi Party Committee (including: Building a cultural environment – Awakening development potential – Perfecting the role model of Hanoi youth).
Since 2018, the Standing Committee of the Hanoi Youth Union has developed a Plan to implement the campaign “Building the Role Model Values of the Capital’s New Era Youth,” targeting six criteria and six values. The six criteria are: Strong resilience, Rich knowledge, Cultural conduct, Compliance with the law, Robust health, and Proficient skills. The six values are: Pioneering, Exemplary, Solidarity, Responsibility, Creativity, and Integration.
The role model values of the Capital’s youth are universal, suitable for the majority of young people, and serve as a goal for youth to strive toward. The six criteria and six values are not set excessively high, have specific meanings, are practical, and are built on the foundations of the previous phase with adjustments and additions suitable for the current stage and requirements of the era. The criteria and values are structured logically and concisely to help youth easily understand, remember, internalize, and apply them anytime, anywhere.

To improve the quality of the campaign implementation during 2023-2027, the Hanoi Youth Union organized the seminar “Building the Role Model of the Capital’s New Era Youth, 2023-2027,” themed ‘Aspiration of Youth.’ At the seminar, delegates, exemplary Hanoi Youth Union officials, members, young people, and students presented, exchanged, and proposed solutions to further effectively implement the campaign; shared successful models, creative approaches currently implemented effectively in localities and units; identified existing limitations; and proposed solutions on propaganda, education, and activities of the Union, Federation, and Children’s Council to implement the campaign effectively in the future. Many dedicated opinions included: to build the Capital’s youth role model in the era of international integration, it is necessary to fulfill the pioneering mission of digital transformation. Union members and youth must be the first to change their mindset and awareness regarding digital transformation, thereby changing habits and proactively applying digital technology in specific tasks. Hanoi youth need to uphold the value of “Pioneering” and the criterion of cultural conduct, where “Pioneering” must go hand in hand with responsibility.
