The event aims to empower Quang Nam youth to protect wild animals and restore biodiversity.

Vietnam is recognized as one of the 16 countries with the highest biodiversity in the world. Biodiversity plays an important role in human existence and development.

However, the situation of illegal hunting, trading, and use of wild animals is increasing, driving several wildlife species to the brink of extinction and declining biodiversity.

Wildlife abuse still continues. One of the common behaviors that exists in all localities is the consumption of wildlife meat.

Giving a speech at the seminar, Assoc. Prof. Dr. Huynh Trong Duong, Rector of Quang Nam University, said living sustainably in harmony and with responsibility with nature is very important to protect the environment and preserve biodiversity. It requires the cooperation of all social classes, especially youth and students.
