According to the Organizing Committee, the purpose of this event is to introduce customs, costumes, cuisine and Vietnamese folk games to Vietnamese and Polish students and international friends. Folk games are played by students during their break time, creating a useful playground for students.
Through these folk games, students also understand better about the country and people of Vietnam, building relationships and connections between Vietnamese students and parents with schools, teachers, friends in Poland and other countries.
It also creates an opportunity for Vietnamese students to feel proud of their nationality, be confident and assert the position of Vietnamese community in Polish society.
