The Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development (MARD) is tasked with working with functional agencies to prepare agenda and compile documents, and with the Nam Dinh People’s Committee to organize the conference and related events. 

Meanwhile, the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism must join hands with the MARD and Nam Dinh authorities on cultural and art performances at the event and a photo exhibition on the 10-year implementation.

Relevant agencies are asked to team up with the MARD to organize the conference and report results of the program to the MARD prior to September 30, while localities nationwide should enhance communications to raise awareness of the event and achievements of the national target program.

The National Target Program on New-style Rural Area Building, initiated by the Government in 2010, sets 19 criteria on socio-economic development, politics, and defense, aiming to boost rural regions of Vietnam.

The list of criteria includes the development of infrastructure, the improvement of production capacity, environmental protection, and the promotion of cultural values.
