“Moving Forward with Vietnam” is an unprecedented community event of profound political and social significance, taking place in the context of the country entering a new stage of development along with the rearrangement of administrative units.

With the message “1 billion steps into the new era”, the program is not only a sports activity responding to the campaign “All people exercise following the example of great Uncle Ho” and the movement “Healthy to build and protect the Fatherland”, but also a journey connecting millions of hearts, converging all generations and classes of people from urban to rural, mountainous, remote and isolated areas, together towards the goal of building a united, strong and sustainable Vietnam.

From early morning, many people gathered at the walking street area next to Hoan Kiem Lake.

From July 25 to August 16, 2025, people across the country actively participated in registering online through the official portal cungvietnamtienbuoc.nhandan.vn to contribute to the journey of "1 billion steps". Each step recorded through the program's digital platform is a "green step", contributing to reducing carbon emissions, raising awareness of environmental protection and moving towards the country's Net Zero goal.
