Ho Chi Minh City, October 16-17, 2009 DeveLOPinG HIGher educAtion: Lessons froM EXPerience Hoa Sen University. Ho Chi Minh City, October 19-20, 2009 THE SEMinARS Hoa Sen University Since the beginning of the 21st century, new forces—cultural, political, environmental, and economic—have swept the world with irreversible changes. Without a doubt, the landscape of the current global economic meltdown has affected Higher Education in more ways than one. As we are reexamining the role of Higher Education within these new global complexities, it is important to analyze in some depth global education as a whole and to deliberate on the future trend of Higher Education for Vietnam. Thus comes up the question, “Developing higher education: les- sons from experience” Hoa Sen University hosted an international scientific conference on October 19 and 20, 2009 to address this question. This international meeting is part of a cycle of scientific activities initiated by Hoa Sen University in 2007 with two pre- vious seminars already completed: “Autonomous thinking, self-government and teaching methods” (January 2008) and “Striving for a better higher education in Vietnam, the 20th - 21st Century milestones” (December 2008). In addressing the situation in Vietnam, the October conference also contributes to a 2008 action supported by the Charles Leopold Mayer Foundation for Human Progress in response to the global question: “What is the university for the 21st century?” hosted by Tri Viet University. Tri Viet International University Project 2 Tri Viet International University Project is the brainchild of a group of dedicated Vietnamese intellectuals and profes- sionals who pondered over its vision and conception for several years before launching the project in August 2007.
