  • Conservation Education in Vietnam

    VIETNAM: College-educated volunteers ( > 50 since inception) received training needed to conduct conservation education lessons in rural but highly biodiverse areas in central Vietnam. Volunteers create primary and secondary school curricula, as well as supporting educational materials such as teacher's guides and biologically-correct storybooks that highlight regional endangered species. Over 5,000 primary schoolchildren have benefited from these free lessons and materials. Additionally, volunteers conduct social and wildlife research studies to determine knowledge, attitude, and awareness of rural residents toward native threatened species and critical habitat.
