Let’s travel back in time! Today we would like to share some great moments and initiatives from our Vietnamese partner Viện Khoa Học Công Nghệ & Quản Lý Môi Trường - IUH (IESEM) of Industrial University of Ho Chi Minh City (IUH)

Back in October 2019, IESEM together with Nguyen Thi Minh Khai High School organized public events "Say NO to Plastic Waste Campaign" and "Plastics, Microplastics, and the Effect on our Environment Exhibition"

The events aim to increase the awareness and to give information to high school students about plastic pollution and its effect on the environment and humans. There were number of activities such as finding the age of plastics, Plastics classification challenge, and so on. Within this event, there were also Vietnamese famous actor - Mr. Lien Binh Phat and a famous MC - Kim Thao from Ho Chi Minh Television which helped the event to attract a large media attention to the events.
