In 2024, on the occasion of the 15th anniversary of Hương Việt magazine and the 50th anniversary of Việt Nam - Germany relations, the magazine is preparing a special programme promoting Vietnamese culture.

With efforts and contributions for more than a decade, Hương Việt Magazine and its Editor-in-Chief Phạm Khánh Nam have received many awards, and certificates of merit from agencies at all levels. VNA
