Dear students,
When we talk about youth activities, we often think of media campaigns, training sessions, or startup competitions. However, it doesn't stop there; today's youth are increasingly enthusiastic about scientific research, especially in the field of environment, contributing to a sector that plays a crucial role in the process of moving towards a green Vietnam.
To learn more about this story, please register to participate in the seminar jointly organized by the Live & Learn Center for Environment and Community, Hanoi University of Natural Resources and Environment and the Faculty of Water Resources Engineering, Thuy Loi University:
At this seminar, we will be listening to the insights shared by our guest speakers:
Ms. Ha is passionate about both technology and the environment. She summarizes her experience in these two fields with the words "challenging" and "exciting." She understands that technology has the power to offer promising solutions to pressing environmental problems, but also recognizes that technology alone is not enough. After more than five years of participating in training and communication activities related to scientific research on sustainable development, she is now working with Live & Learn to promote clean air policies for Hanoi and Vietnam.
In addition to her teaching duties, Ms. Hanh is also the Head of the Department of Scientific Management and Development Cooperation at the university. She has been a reviewer for more than 10 prestigious international scientific journals and has nearly 20 years of experience teaching Environmental Health. To date, Ms. Hanh has led, coordinated, and implemented more than 20 collaborative scientific research projects with universities and research institutes in the UK, Canada, Sweden, Thailand, and organizations in Vietnam. Associate Professor Tuyet Hanh has published nearly 50 scientific articles in international peer-reviewed journals and 30 scientific articles in domestic peer-reviewed journals.
Ms. Doan Ngoc Anh, representative of the project group researching the trends in PM2.5 fine dust concentration and Air Quality Index (AQI) in Vietnam during the 4th wave of the Covid-19 pandemic.
This study was conducted to assess air quality (focusing on PM2.5 fine particulate matter concentrations and the AQId) in Vietnam (focusing on three provinces: Bac Ninh, Hanoi, and Ho Chi Minh City) before, during, and after the fourth wave of the Covid-19 pandemic. The study also investigated the influence of meteorological factors (ambient air temperature and wind speed) on PM2.5 concentrations.
Ms. Le Thi Hao - Youth Action Group for Climate Change
Ms. Hao, currently a teacher at Quang Phu Secondary School in Quang Trach District, Quang Binh Province, represents a project to collect agricultural straw and rice husks to reduce air pollution and to use them as raw materials for improving concrete salt production surfaces, thereby increasing salt productivity for local salt-producing communities in coastal areas. The project aims to reduce air pollution during salt production, contributing to increased income and improved living standards for local farmers.
Mr. Ta Ngoc Ly - Representative of the SHBK group - Project on producing bio-organic fertilizer from discarded chicken feathers to prevent pollution in poultry slaughtering activities.
By transforming discarded chicken feathers into biofertilizer, the project aims to minimize the amount of feather waste released into the environment and create microbial organic fertilizer for organic agriculture. The goal is to develop a zero-waste production method and increase the value chain of poultry farming and processing, bringing practical benefits to the community. Furthermore, this research helps reduce environmental pollution, creates products for organic agriculture, thus contributing to mitigating climate change and moving towards sustainable development.
Nguyen Thanh Tu - Flood Damage Assessment Team
Tu represents the Research Project on the Application of Remote Sensing Image Interpretation in Building Flood Damage Maps for Can Tho City. The flood and flood damage maps from this research are effective tools for managers, policymakers, and residents of Can Tho City to use as a flood guide, supporting decision-making, developing response plans, enhancing adaptability, and effectively mitigating flood damage.
