On Earth Day 2023, with USAID support, Can Tho University (CTU) held a workshop to develop the knowledge, skills, and capabilities of 130 youth to address climate change, environmental, and biodiversity challenges in Vietnam.
CTU is the first Vietnamese public university to receive a grant from USAID, making it a central actor in the Mekong Delta and opens the door for more locally-led development programs. Working with students at this partner university builds the skills of young people to develop the innovative solutions the Mekong region needs to overcome the challenges faced by climate change.
