| Job Description: |
Movement for international sea cleaning named International Coastal Cleanup (ICC) was initiated by Ocean Conservancy. Since founded, ICC has been implemented in over 100 countries. In Vietnam, UVP program has already started this activity in Ha Long bay- a famous World Heritage.
With mysterious and wonderful scenery, it`s reasonable for UNESCO to recognize Ha Long Bay as a world heritage. However, Ha Long bay is suffering from consequences of human activities. Due to the fast economic development and tourism, the environment of Ha Long bay has been affected seriously, especially with floating garbage on the area along the Northern shore of the heritage.
UVP cooperates with Ha Long Bay Management Board to ensure that the UVP`s volunteer program for preserving world heritage will be sustainably implemented in Ha Long. With the participation of local people and international volunteers, this program is expected to contribute to protecting this treasure for future generations.
The main goal of the program is to contribute to improving people`s awareness on environmental protection, especially the young people in the community living near the heritage site. Activities with UVP to clean the beach can not immediately solve the problems affecting the environment, but this event can help educate the people and raise their awareness about the seriousness of environment preservation. The main program`s message is "build up awareness on environmental protection through real activities" This is also a statement of UVP with the commitment to keep water clean and sustainable for long-term. |
