The Diplomatic Academy of Vietnam (DAV; Vietnamese: Học viện Ngoại giao Việt Nam) is a public research university located in Hanoi, Vietnam, and an administrative unit under management of Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Vietnam.[2][3] Founded in 1959, formerly known as "University of Foreign Affairs" or "Institute for International Relations", the Diplomatic Academy of Vietnam is known as an institution providing training, research and forecasts on a range of regional and global issues to the country's government.[4] It is regarded as a training ground for future diplomats, leaders, civil servants, journalists and business executives in Vietnam.[5]

DAV carries out research and forecasts on world affairs, international relations, political and economic affairs, security, national defence, law, culture and foreign policies of nations and regions. It serves as think tank for foreign policy, history and international relations theory.[6] In the 2017 Global Go To Think Tank Index Report, the Diplomatic Academy of Vietnam ranked 40th amongst top 100 think tanks in the Southeast Asia and Pacific region.[7]
