Theme: MỘT

Growing up, we have been taught to make clear judgments: if something is good, it cannot be bad; if something is right,
it cannot be wrong; if something is simple, it is no longer complicated. There is always some sort of separation, some sort of difference. However, in an age where technology can change something overnight, where the livelihoods of a country “made great again" can be destroyed after an unexpected epidemic, where people loot in the name of social justice, so which side is good and which is bad? Or all of those things are just ONE, as long as we shift our angle a bit?
Liters of blood, hundreds of bones, and millions of organisms support one another to build ONE body? Billions of trees, forests, rivers, and other creatures include each other to become ONE earth?
...Just as ONE.
By introducing 06 different approaches, the event aims to open up for its participants a new lens to look at life: unifying the two extremes. From there, we hope to inspire the youth to be ONE part of some movements bigger than themselves.

Phuong Dinh Toai

Father Phuong Dinh Toai - Priest of the Camillo, is the founder of Mai Tam Shelter - the refuge of hundreds of children and many mothers carrying the century disease: HIV/AIDS. Furthermore, Father Toai, together with the Faith - Culture group, set up a charity clinic at Mai Khoi monastery. He is also known as a famous psychologist with many lectures on mainstream television. As a person who has witnessed many tortuous human life situations that HIV and social stereotypes have driven them to the dead end, for Father, they are innocent victims. They must have life opportunities, be given love and happiness. And perhaps, Father's compassion that has persisted for a decade results from the constant struggle between intelligence (IQ) and emotion (EQ). Website: https://www.maitam.org/
