Foreign Policy Analysis
Foreign Policy Analysis (FPA) appears in the curriculum of almost every university which offers undergraduate and/or graduate programs in Internatinal Relations (IR). In Vietnam, IR teaching has begun to follow international standards since late 1990s by introducing core courses such as IR History, IR Theories, Vietnam Foreign Policy, Global Governance… which is, surprisingly, not the case for FPA. To overcome this shortcoming, the Diplomatic Academy of Vietnam and the Konrad-Adenauer-Stiftung in Vietnam co-organize the Course-Building Workshop on Foreign Policy Analysis. This is the phase 2 of a 3-years project supported by KAS Vietnam with the aim of incorporating FPA in the IR curriculum at DAV. The workshop will serve as a forum for exchanging ideas among Vietnamese scholars and researchers, and with their foreign colleagues about the syllabus of the FPA course. The participants are generally professors, scholars and researchers from almost all institutions and universities in Vietnam which have a department and/or teaching portfolio on IR.

NA deputies and delegates of people’s councils are elected every five year, therefore, it is crucial for the NA’s Finance and Budget Committee to regularly organize workshop to disseminate and sharing experiences among the newly elected deputies who are in charge of verifying and supervising state and local budget settlement. KAS Vietnam will cooperate with the National Assembly’s Finance and Budget Committee to organize a workshop on “Improving the verification of the State and local budget settlement”.
