During the meeting, based on the central government's directives and the guidelines from the Committee for Ethnic Minority Affairs, the provincial People's Committee issued a decision to establish the Steering Committee, subcommittees to assist the Steering Committee, and assigned related agencies to guide localities in the implementation process.

As of now, all 10 districts, towns, and cities have successfully organised their district-level Ethnic Minorities Congresses.

The provincial-level congress is scheduled to take place in November 2024 at the provincial Cultural Conference Centre, with 250 official delegates representing diverse ethnicities and genders.

The proposed list of personnel includes a 9-member Presidium, a 3-member Credential Verification Committee, and a 2-member Secretariat.

The congress will also feature activities such as offering incense in memory of martyrs at the Điện Biên Phủ Battlefield Martyrs Temple, visiting the A1 Martyrs Cemetery, touring the Điện Biên Phủ Historical Victory Museum, attending an art performance at the Điện Biên Phủ Victory Monument, and visiting and giving gifts to policy families who belong to ethnic minorities.

Additionally, there will be a One Commune One Product (OCOP) exhibition at the congress.
