The event aimed to offer researchers and lecturers from Asian countries a chance to exchange experience and knowledge in dealing with environmental issues, especially the effective use of natural resources and energy saving.
The delegates agreed that Vietnam’s rapid growth and increasing exploitation of natural resources, along with its industrialisation and modernisation process, have put increasing pressure on the environment.
Environmental pollution has become a barrier for the country’s growth and socio-economic development, they said.
They also stressed the importance of protecting the environment in line with the country’s growth and development in the future.
