ENV Mobile Unit in Hai Phong and Quang Ninh
From March 12 to 22, the ENV Mobile Unit conducted wildlife protection training sessions with new volunteers in Hai Phong and Quang Ninh. Volunteers learned how to identify wildlife that needs to be protected, monitor businesses, conduct surveys, and sharpen their investigation skills. The volunteers then conducted practice surveys and monitoring, guided by ENV staff. 119 new volunteers joined ENV’s Volunteer Program and 90 places were monitored and surveyed during the practice sessions.
The Mobile Unit also gave wildlife talks to students at Ha Long College of Art, Culture and Tourism and Hai Phong Private University, and held bear protection campaigns at Ha Long market, the Hai Phong Private University Hostel, and Big C supermarket. Over 1700 people pledged to protect bears during the events.
