Most recently, Long co-founded the environmental project GREENACTUS 2019 which got the support of #SaveSonDoong and Wilderness Foundation Africa.
The project aims to equip the younger generation with the right knowledge and skillset to solve real-life environmental issues in Vietnam.
For their numerous projects that worked towards a better community, Long and his club received a Community Spotlight Award presented by RMIT’s Student Life last year.
“We are proud to have contributed to raising public awareness about social and environmental issues in Vietnam,” Long said.
“As young people, we might feel overwhelmed when faced with the problems out there in the country. But I have realised that we don’t have to do it alone. By connecting with other students and organisations, we can and will find solutions to those problems.”
Developing life skills
Bachelor of Communication (Professional Communication) graduate Ngo Phuong Vy was one of the most active core team members in Hanoi’s Student Life department during her time at RMIT.
Vy’s exemplary leadership skills around social responsibility and service at RMIT were acknowledged through a Student Leadership Recognition Award which she achieved last year.
She was also President of the Fitness Integrated Society (FIST), a member of the Music Club, and a frequent volunteer of major annual events such as Graduation, Orientation Day and Founder’s Day Carnival.
In fact, Graduation 2019 was her fourth consecutive graduation day but the first one she attended as a graduand.
