On the occasion of Youth Month and the 93rd anniversary of the founding of the Union (March 26, 1931 - March 26, 2024), the Youth Union of the Vietnam Engineer Corps has had many meaningful and practical activities towards the people and young communities of the Abyei region (Africa).
In the Youth Union of the Engineering Corps, there are some very young people who, as soon as they left their positions as leaders, immediately wrote a volunteer application to join the Vietnamese peacekeeping force.
Traveling over 11,000km, the young people with their enthusiastic spirit left strong impressions on the difficult land of Abyei.
Taking advantage of holidays and breaks, Vietnamese youth union members divide into groups to repair and make tables and chairs for schools, support local people in planting agricultural crops or provide water to residential areas, hospitals, churches, etc.
