RMIT University Vietnam's alumni relations department has just launched the "Sach Sanh Sanh" campaign, an acronym for "clean eating", "song sanh" and "longevity".

The campaign takes place from May to December 2024 with many different activities: creating artworks, visiting recycling factories, cooking and donating food to charity centers, walking to contribute to the tree planting fund in Ho Chi Minh City, sorting and exchanging plastic waste for gifts, green business exhibition...

These activities are open to RMIT Vietnam alumni, students and those aged 18 and over in Vietnam.

According to the organizers, if we adopt good habits such as reducing food waste, reusing and recycling more, we will live longer and our future will also be more sustainable.

The initiative focuses on raising public awareness about food waste and sustainable living, its impact on greenhouse gas emissions and personal health, as well as ways to reduce food waste and move towards a more environmentally friendly lifestyle.

Furthermore, the campaign is committed to promoting best practices, sharing knowledge and inspiring business leaders to put sustainability at the heart of their operations.

Mr. Pham Huu Hoang - Head of RMIT Alumni Relations - said that the RMIT Vietnam alumni community of more than 22,500 people working at 6,000 businesses across the country and Southeast Asia region, actively responded to this call for sustainability.

"Many of these alumni are change makers who have been making positive socio-economic impacts," said Mr. Hoang.

Awareness Campaign

According to the organizers, recent data shows that one-third of the food produced for human consumption globally is lost or wasted, amounting to about 1.3 billion tons per year. This generates 8-10% of the world's annual greenhouse gas emissions, nearly five times more than the aviation industry.

The United Nations Sustainable Development Goal 12 aims to ensure sustainable consumption and production patterns. At the national level, Vietnam is also striving to achieve “Zero Hunger” by 2025 and “Net Zero Emissions” by 2050, including reducing food waste and carbon emissions.

The "Clean and Sanh Sanh" campaign is expected to promote public awareness of sustainability topics by providing the information, knowledge and skills needed for people to take action.
