At the event, experts and delegates proposed ideas for enterprises to carry out their social responsibility for environmental protection, and underlined the benefits that it brings.

Nguyen Dinh Phuc, Vice Chairman of the municipal Union of Science and Technology Associations, said more enterprises are willing to use their corporate social responsibility (CSR) fund to finance environmental projects carried out by social organizations. However, the coordination between the two sides still faces certain issues, he said, adding that events like this program will help the sides find shared values and enhance their cooperation in the future.

The activity was part of a project on pooling financial resources for sustainable biodiversity conservation and environmental protection in Da Nang city, or known as Vietnam Wildlife Conservation Fund project, which is funded by the European Union Delegation to Vietnam.

The project aims to establish a fund for the conservation of wild flora and fauna in Vietnam, mobilize resources and enhance the capacity of local social organizations operating in the field of biodiversity conservation, environmental protection, and climate change response in Central and Central Highlands regions of the country.

Carried out by GreenViet Center since 2020, the project has so far achieved goals as scheduled. 2023 is the final year of the project and many important activities will be held.
