Sharing about the persistent activities of the langur conservation group, Mr. Nguyen Thanh Tu, Head of the white-cheeked langur conservation group, said that the motivation for him and his colleagues to stick with this work is to avoid the risk of the country losing a valuable asset, the white-cheeked langur, which is mainly due to the great threat from humans. As a retired border guard, he said that he came to this work by chance, was trained and supported, so even if he encountered difficulties or was threatened, he and his colleagues affirmed that they were "not afraid", because "above my head is the law, in front of me is the entire political system, and behind me is the entire community".

Lead the tectonic flow of the entire community to create real change
Sharing about the theme of this year's season, comrade Le Quoc Minh, member of the Party Central Committee, Editor-in-Chief of Nhan Dan Newspaper, Head of the Organizing Committee of the Human Act Prize 2024, said that "Creative Community" does not lie in the prominence of each individual. It is a persistent flow created by countless successive actions, large and small efforts from factors in different positions and fields. It is only that resonance that can promote profound change.
According to comrade Le Quoc Minh, the spirit of Community Building exists in every person, but for an initiative to be able to nurture long-term and help the community on a large scale, many factors need to converge. It does not only come from the heart or a story with humane power, but also requires a correct strategy, constant creativity and sustainable resources. These are factors that are not easy to converge, and are also the biggest challenge for those who are committed to the community. "The mission of the Human Act Prize is to find and spread such models to lead the creative flow of the entire community to develop effectively and sustainably, creating real changes!", comrade Le Quoc Minh emphasized.
The Editor-in-Chief of Nhan Dan Newspaper affirmed that Human Act Prize will continue its journey of connecting resources, providing spiritual and intellectual support to replicate projects that have a great impact on society, while inspiring individuals, organizations, and businesses who wish to participate in the next creative imprints, for a beautiful life for all Vietnamese people, for all peoples on this Earth.
