First Congress of Thai Nguyen Provincial Association of Architects

On April 18, the Thai Nguyen Provincial Association of Architects held its first congress for the 2025–2030 term, with the participation of representatives from the Vietnam Association of Architects, professional associations from inside and outside the province, and 90 members.

Launch of the Thai Nguyen Young Architects Club.

Over the past five years, as a political, social, and professional organization, the Association has gradually brought together and expanded the province's architectural community, while focusing on professional training and enhancing creative and critical capacities.

The Association has enhanced its advisory role in planning and architecture, supporting local authorities in urban development management. Many planning projects, urban renovation programs, and plans for school and healthcare systems, residential areas, and industrial clusters bear the clear imprint of Thai Nguyen’s architects.

As Thai Nguyen aims for rapid and sustainable growth, the congress identified key priorities including further improving the quality of social criticism for major projects, proactively participating early in the planning process, promoting green architecture and smart cities, and linking development with the preservation of local identity.

At the same time, the Association seeks to build a younger generation of architects with strong integration capacity, capable of keeping pace with modern design trends.

The Congress elected a new Executive Committee consisting of 11 members and 03 alternate members. On this occasion, the Association also organized a series of activities, such as a seminar titled “50 Years of the Journey of Creation,” a gathering to commemorate Vietnam Architecture Day (April 27), and the launch of the Young Architects Club.
