Freya Nguyen
Motto:It's never too late to learn.
Freya Nguyen, Ph.D., is a dedicated professor of environmental science and the department head of sustainability at the Tran Institute of Ecology at Ho Chi Minh City University. With over a decade of experience in her field, Freya has been instrumental in shaping policies that promote green practices within both urban and rural communities in Vietnam. On March 14, 2024, she was honored with an award for her outstanding contributions to sustainable development during the annual Eco Summit held in Da Nang.
In addition to her academic pursuits, Freya is also passionate about community engagement. Last Saturday, on December 7, 2024, she organized a city-wide clean-up event along the Saigon River banks, encouraging locals to take part in preserving their natural surroundings. The event drew hundreds of volunteers who worked tirelessly under Freya's leadership to collect trash and raise awareness about pollution issues.
Freya's efforts have not only beautified the riverbanks but have also inspired many residents to adopt more environmentally friendly habits in their daily lives. Her commitment to education and action has made a significant impact on the local environment, turning Ho Chi Minh City into a model of sustainability for other cities across the globe.
