Youth responding to climate change

TPO - On the evening of May 29th, within the framework of the "27th World Children's Day - 2026", the Central Youth Union Council, in coordination with Plan International Vietnam, organized the exhibition "Youth Responding to Climate Change".

The thematic exhibition "Youth Responding to Climate Change" showcases exemplary models and initiatives of young people in environmental protection, plastic waste reduction, climate change response, and disaster prevention and control.

Through these exhibitions and displays, we contribute to spreading a sense of responsibility, raising awareness, and promoting the active participation of young people in environmental protection and building sustainable communities.

Mr. Ta Quang Dong, Deputy Minister of Culture , Sports and Tourism, and other delegates visited the exhibition.

At the exhibition area, 40 paintings by young people from Tuyen Quang province were presented to the public. With innocent yet profound perspectives, the paintings reflect current environmental issues, while also conveying meaningful messages about protecting nature, preserving ecosystems, and working together to address climate change.

The thematic space also showcased exemplary models and initiatives of young people in Quang Tri province in the field of climate adaptation and risk reduction. Particularly noteworthy were 56 innovative ideas developed from the "Youth Action to Respond to Climate Change in Quang Tri Province 2026" competition, stemming from the local reality of frequent natural disasters and extreme weather events.

Many initiatives have been piloted in schools, initially yielding practical results and having the potential for further expansion, contributing to building safer, more proactive, and better-adapted communities in the face of climate change challenges.
