Bio-diversity

The project meets the goal of the GEF/SGP by contributing to the conservation of the bird island in Chi Lang Nam Commune, Thanh Mien District, Hai Duong Province. This bird island has been established recently and has attracted many scientists, researchers and students as well as international and domestic tourists in recent years. Although it is not adequately researched, the bird island is the home of many national and migratory bird species. However, the bird island bank has been seriously eroded, resulting in a significant decrease in the area of the island. Due to the fact that the number of birds significantly increases, there is not enough space for the birds to stay and nest. The project promotes the community to undertake urgent measures to protect the island and conserve its biodiversity. Its primary goal is to establish an environmental education centre at the bird island and to design and test an environmental education curriculum, incorporating teaching biodiversity conservation in other relevant subjects at primary, secondary and high schools, using the bird island as an environmental address for study tours in school teaching and learning activities.
