Conservation education in cities

School and Community

Rationale

Students and communities in big cities in Vietnam have access to a lot of information sources from the internet, books, and newspapers with different topics. However, currently, on social media, there is a lot of harmful information, images, and videos with content that go against conservation principles and are not carefully controlled.

We aim to provide them with knowledge and skills toward wildlife protection and encourage them to take action to protect wildlife. Thereby connecting future generations of Vietnam with nature, and fostering love and pride in local wildlife.

To achieve this goal, we developed different activities for students and communities in cities
