The conference’s theme “the role of young people in accelerating sustainable development goals by digital transformation and innovation” is practical, thus a lot of issues will be tabled for discussion, Hang said.

Amidst the 4th Industrial Revolution, the youth should equip themselves with necessary knowledge and skills to keep pace with digital transformation, she added, pointing that specific mechanisms and support policies should be sketched out to encourage young people to develop innovative projects, which are important to the national development./.
