This forum is the beginning of a series of three regional forums on biodiversity heroes to attract key organizations and individuals from different sectors, such as Press media, universities, research institutions, government agencies, private organizations, and youths to protect biodiversity.
At the forum, biodiversity heroes came from four countries, Laos, Myanmar, Thailand and Vietnam, have told stories about the path to biodiversity as well as conservation initiatives and experiences. According to Dr. Nonn Panitvong, the hero of Thailand's biodiversity, wants to send the forum to protect biodiversity in the hands of the young generation. We need to convey a lot of information about plants and animals to the community. This will be easier when we set up clubs, groups of activities. |
