Models for learning from and following Uncle Ho in 2026: name ideas and how to run them

What is a model for learning from and following Uncle Ho?

It is a concrete, regular way for an individual or group to follow Ho Chi Minh's thought, ethics and style in work, study and daily life, with measurable results.

In 2026 the Politburo issued Directive 07-CT/TW on stepping up learning and practising Ho Chi Minh's thought, ethics, methods and style in the new period. Many units are taking the chance to refresh their models with a focus on real results.

How to choose a model

A model that is easy to run usually answers four questions:

• Who does it?

  An individual, party cell, teaching group or youth cell, with a clear person in charge.

• Which teaching does it follow?

  Tied to a specific teaching or standard: diligence, thrift, integrity; closeness to the people; devotion to students…

• For whom, solving what?

  The beneficiaries and a real problem in the unit or area.

• What is the result?

  Something countable: sessions, participants, issues resolved, satisfaction.

Naming the model

Keep the name short and memorable, saying the action and result. “A Ho Chi Minh story every week” is clearer than a generic name like “Learning from Uncle Ho at school”.

A simple formula: action + audience + rhythm, such as “One good deed a month”, “Friendly one-stop desk”, “Neighborhood notice board with QR codes”.

Model ideas for schools

• A Ho Chi Minh story every week

  Teachers and students tell stories, recorded as audiobooks with QR codes to replay at home.

• Knowledge contest about Ho Chi Minh by grade

  A review game on a projector or phones during class meetings.

• Class reading corner

  A small bookshelf with QR codes to materials; students write reflections after each book.

• One good deed a month

  Record students' good deeds and feature role models on the school's section.

• Teachers share digital resources

  Each teacher shares digital resources every term with the teaching group.

• The school's digital heritage room

  School history and role models on a page viewable on phones.

Model ideas for neighborhoods and residential party cells

• Neighborhood notice board with QR codes

  Notices, common procedures and local role models updated weekly.

• Words matched by deeds

  A channel for residents' feedback with published results.

• Digital helpers for older residents

  Help with online public services and safe payments.

• The ward's revolutionary sites

  A digital map and QR codes at historic sites for residents and students.

• Local good-deed stories

  A monthly section of real stories from the neighborhood.

Model ideas for agencies and youth unions

• Friendly one-stop desk

  Clear procedure guidance, a Q&A assistant and satisfaction surveys by QR code.

• One action per official

  Each person chooses one concrete action and shares results quarterly.

• Party cell meetings with digital materials

  Ten minutes of short video and questions on Ho Chi Minh's teachings.

• Youth tell Ho Chi Minh stories on video

  One short video per youth cell per quarter on the union's channel.

• Youth project digitizing revolutionary sites

  Members photograph, write captions and map local historic sites.

Running the model and recording results

• Make a short plan

  What, who, when, the product and how results are measured.

• Keep it regular

  Tie it to existing meeting schedules so it is not abandoned.

• Record with figures and pictures

  Sessions, participants, photos, videos and beneficiaries' feedback.

• Share and scale

  Present the approach so other units can learn and apply it.

Using digital technology for the model

Not every model needs technology, but a little digital help keeps it regular, easy to record and widely shared:

• QR codes

  Link to stories, materials and notices; place them at the corner, notice board or workplace.

• Audiobooks

  Stories about Ho Chi Minh recorded as audio for phones.

• Games and quizzes

  Review knowledge about Ho Chi Minh in class meetings and themed sessions.

• Digital section or exhibition

  A place for activities, role models and view statistics of the model.
