He also proposed strengthening the Association’s connection with the network of Vietnamese alumni who studied in Australia to leverage this expert resource. He emphasized that this group could make significant contributions to medical human resource training, particularly in family medicine, a field in which Australia has considerable expertise.

At the same event, Vice President of the Association Nguyen Ngoc Hung expressed hope that Professor Fisher and her colleagues in Australia would continue to support Vietnam in training healthcare professionals, conducting applied research, and transferring knowledge.

In response, Professor Jane Fisher reaffirmed her willingness to promote and enhance cooperative activities with the Vietnam-Australia Friendship Association. She noted that many Vietnamese medical students currently studying at Monash University are eager to contribute to the development of Vietnam’s healthcare system through research and practical initiatives.

Professor Fisher also shared that her research team is developing digital applications to support parents in caring for and educating young children. She expressed a desire to collaborate with Vietnamese partners to scale up these initiatives.

Both sides agreed that digital transformation in healthcare, particularly at the grassroots level, represents a promising direction for cooperation.
