It also marks a new progression for our organization on a global level because we will have to re-elect all our leaders: 

  • The Vovinam-Việt Võ Đạo World Council of Masters: A technical executive board responsible for ethics, philosophy, the curriculum, the degree system, examinations, thesis defenses..., with the mission of monitoring, supporting and developing Vovinam's national federations and training centers Vovinam-Việt Võ Đạo throughout the world.
  • The Vovinam-Việt Võ Đạo World Federation: administrative executive board that represents our Vovinam-Việt Võ Đạo in legal terms, with the mission of controlling, coordinating and developing all national federations.

 According to our statutes, the election of the management team takes place once every 4 years.

In 2020, the Covid-19 health crisis prevented a world congress for to renew the current management team which has been elected since 2016 in Los Angeles - California - USA. 

Get ready now to attend this congress and present yourself for the election of the new management team in order to actively participate in the development of our organization. 

The World Congress is also an opportunity for masters from all continents to take the degree examination, defend their thesis or be promoted to the next grade according to the "International Convention of Ranks". 

The organizing committee will be placed under the direction of the Vovinam Việt Võ Đạo World Federation with the support of the Tunisian Association of Vovinam-Viet Vo Dao. 

Throughout the 3 days of the World Congress (from September 26 to 28, 2024), the organizing committee will cover the costs of accommodation and meals for the masters and presidents of the member national federations. 

Hammamet is a seaside resort in Tunisia, very famous for its beautiful sandy beaches and crystal-clear waters. In this wonderful setting, we have decided to welcome you and your family during this period. In the coming days, you will receive the registration documents as well as the participation rates. 

We look forward to seeing you in Hammamet - Tunisia for the success of the 10th World Congress.

    An International organization as ours, if it has no changes or reforms, it becomes then a structure in stagnation and it will have no future!

    For that reason, the changes as: Internal Rules, International Agreement, Way of functioning… or the reforms as: Program of Teaching, Educational Program, Program of Examination… are activities more than necessities, they are the homework of the members of World council of Masters.

    According to the Chapter I, Article 4.1 of the Internal rules of the World Council of Masters : " All masters, members of council, have the right to propose reforms in all the Chapters, and articles of all the activities of the World Council of Masters, on the condition of sending them two months in advance to the General Secretary of the World Council of Masters to register them on the schedule Debate ".
