Long before any big-shot pledges were signed and promises were made at COP26, many environment changemakers have been taking action and exerting influence in their own communities. Behind the headlines - we are bringing you first-hand accounts of two environment frontliners, one from northern rural Vietnam and the other from southern urban Vietnam with two vastly different backgrounds and drastically different approaches but sharing a common value. 

If you like our work, please consider supporting it! Running an independent project of this length and depth is difficult, but we want to be independent from advertising and continue to publish original reporting and storytelling about Vietnam’s cultural, environmental and socioeconomic issues with a focus on local people and long-term residents in the country.
