The programme aims to respond to the Government's project of planting one billion trees and the Ho Chi Minh Communist Youth Union Central Committee’s goal of planting 100 million new trees.
According to Alternate Member of the Party Central Committee, Permanent Secretary of the Ho Chi Minh Communist Youth Union Central Committee Bui Quang Huy, the special feature of the programme lies in the fact that youth members and young people will have the opportunity of planting trees and growing forests by doing simple things through activities such as “Green Commitment”, “Green Action”, photo contests, virtual tree planting, running, walking, etc.
With results obtained from the programme as well as practical studies in the provinces of Quang Nam, Quang Ngai, Dak Lak, and Dak Nong, the Organising Committee will coordinate with the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development and the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment to develop a scientific report on the value of new crops under the programme towards the biosphere, biomass and groundwater in forests.
