Meet Sustainable Vietnam Contributor: Tran Vu Ngan Giang

In her words – 

‘Sustainable Vietnam’ means a culture, of which each individual living in Vietnam is aware of and perform their responsibility to maximise their potential in creating positive changes in lives of others – making Vietnam a place that is worth living in.

With this mindset each individual, together with their organisations and/or businesses, add a level of ethics to the way they function from production, to interaction with stakeholders and a positive contribution to the environment.

No one can survive alone – we are all interconnected to each other from people to nature. Everything we do affects others and the next generations to come. As everyone should have equal opportunity to live a flourishing life, we should all ensure that our actions and ‘footprints’ do not negate opportunities for others – that is sustainability.

Every individual, organisation, or sector has a role to play in our ecosystem – each of us is unique with different backgrounds, experience, perspectives, resources, and potentials. Imagine how it looks like when such diverse resources are pulled together. It would bring about different ways of thinking and acting; it would bring about innovative solutions to any challenges. We cannot move forward and get better without creativity and innovation!

Partnerships holds that power by bringing us together to grow at all levels. And as we get together, words such as respect, transparency, accountability, and celebration of differences are fundamental to develop a trusted and just partnership.

The ultimate impact for all sectors, is putting partnerships and sustainability together. We can then see a picture where people are accountable to each other and work together for the win-win-win interests of stakeholders, community, society and the world.
