In Vietnam, the rapid construction of buildings and mass use of plastic products (mostly plastic bottles) is causing tremendous impacts on the environment.
THE PROBLEM
-
We offer weekly workshops teaching people about ecology, environmental science, and environmental policies. Through engaging activities, we hope to empower learners to make positive changes to the environment.
-
Through partnering with other environmental organizations, The Xanh School acts as a green hub for ideas and innovation - a place to incubate and nurture your environmental-related projects - a shared home for like-minded individuals who share the same aspiration.
-
We organize field trips to sites throughout Vietnam to take part in environmental protection activities including but not limited to beach cleanups, sea turtle conservation, and promotion of wildlife education.
-
Most importantly, we strongly encourage everyone to join our flagship program: the School Building Program
​WHY WE DO WHAT WE DO
