AIESEC Danang proudly introduces iNature Camp, with our belief to make a positive change in our society by making impact on the youth through our learning events and environmental campaigns
Located in Southeast Asia, Vietnam is a beautiful and peaceful country, with the 4000-year-old culture and proud history. Although Vietnam experienced many painfully historical events such as: invasion, wars to gain independence, Vietnamese people still maintain their own cultural identities such as Tet Holiday, ancient customs, etc. Nowaday, due to global integration, Vietnamese youth need to have more understanding about national values, namely national pride, local cuisines, folklores and so on. Besides, global mindset, international cultural understanding and essential soft-skills are also the alert issues to adapt to the international environment.
AIESEC Danang, with the vision of peace and fulfillment of humankind's potential, is doing our best to improve the situation. Coming up with the initiative of educating Danang youth about society, culture… in a global experience perspective, following the success of previous projects (40 Days Advance Yourself, Vietnam 3D, UP Camp, Global Passport 1,2,3 ;Zero Plus, MASK…).
