Addressing the conference, VSA Vice Chairman Vu Thanh Mai, said the campaign is aimed raising environmental awareness among Youth Union members, students and pupils.

“It will give young people a way to show their commitment to protecting the environment,” Mai added.

The programme will be expanded to all Youth Union member-associations nationwide, in an effort to collect a million signatures on its website, setting a national record for the number of people taking part in an environmental protection campaign.

The programme will include a variety of activities such as signing a commitment, completing a multiple choice test, and engaging in a dialogue on environmental protection.
