Promoting digital transformation in the Fatherland Front system in Nghe An

On the morning of December 29, the Provincial Fatherland Front Committee held a conference to train on digital transformation and transfer software to report on the work of the Front.

Speaking at the opening of the conference, Chairwoman of the Provincial Fatherland Front Committee Vo Thi Minh Sinh emphasized: Digital transformation is currently an inevitable trend, a matter of survival for countries, organizations, businesses and consumers around the world.

In Nghe An, on August 5, 2022, the Provincial Party Committee issued Resolution No. 09-NQ/TU on digital transformation of Nghe An province by 2025, with a vision to 2030. Departments, branches, sectors, and localities have deployed many forms of propaganda, learning, and dissemination to raise awareness of all levels, sectors, cadres, party members, civil servants, public employees, the business community, and people about the urgency and necessity of digital transformation.

However, awareness of digital transformation in some agencies and localities is not really clear; the content of digital transformation implementation in units, localities and fields has not been defined; leaders in some units are not really interested in digital transformation.

The application of information technology and digital transformation in the activities of the Vietnam Fatherland Front and socio-political organizations is an urgent and important issue. In recent times, the provincial Vietnam Fatherland Front has made many breakthroughs and innovations in the spirit of the Resolution of the Provincial Party Committee on digital transformation in the work of the Vietnam Fatherland Front until 2025 and the following years; Synchronously implementing iOffice software and digital signatures from the province to the commune level; promulgating operating regulations, perfecting the steering committee, and digital transformation support teams...

The Provincial Fatherland Front organizes an assessment of the Cooperation Agreement with VNPT Nghe An on digital transformation for the period 2021-2025; develops and implements software to synthesize people's satisfaction in new rural construction; software to report on the work of the Fatherland Front; software to manage housing support programs for poor households; maintains the use of the application "System for managing feedback and online interaction with the People".

The Nghe An Front Fanpage was built and has attracted more than 170 thousand followers, the social networking site with the largest number of followers in the national Fatherland Front system. This is an important turning point in the propaganda work of the provincial Fatherland Front on social networking platforms.

“In 2024, the provincial Fatherland Front will deploy a reporting software system from the provincial to the commune level with more than 500 accounts. The Standing Committee of the Vietnam Fatherland Front Committee of Nghe An province will include criteria for applying information technology and implementing digital transformation in the criteria for evaluating emulation and rewards in annual Front activities,” emphasized Chairwoman of the Provincial Fatherland Front Committee Vo Thi Minh Sinh.

At the conference, during 1 day, the staff of the Vietnam Fatherland Front at all levels from the provincial to the grassroots level were trained in 2 topics: Some key contents of digital transformation in the work of the Front in the period of 2022-2025; guidance and transfer of software to synthesize monthly, quarterly and annual reports on the work of the Front, document management and administration, digital signatures; Measures to ensure information security for digital transformation work.

This training conference will contribute to building a team of Fatherland Front officials who are adaptive and proactive in digital transformation, improving the quality of activities of the Fatherland Front at all levels.
