The group also took part in a variety of side activities to meet the lecturers and researchers who were attending the session. M. Fin. Nguyen Hong Minh shared the following information regarding these exchange activities: "The delegation of the Faculty of Social Sciences and other universities have registered for a tour to visit notable locations in Belgrade, Serbia. We had the opportunity to explore Belgrade's Old Town and New Town neighbourhoods, learning more about Serbia's history and the country's recent social and economic progress. This journey feels to me like scrolling through an emotive historical video with heroic moments like Democracy Square or the occasionally opulent and grandiose Nikola Tesla Museum. I would like to thank the CFMC 2022 Conference organizers for providing us the chance to explore this lovely city and for making it easy for me to get to know you. Many new acquaintances and a wealth of information gained. It might be argued that I have "a bag full" of information and experiences to bring back to UEB and Vietnam after this trip.
