Biography
My name is Nhi Nguyen, an internal communication specialist with over four years of experience focused on raising environmental awareness and fostering sustainable workplace practices. I am passionate about driving meaningful change by promoting eco-friendly habits and empowering communities to take action on climate change.
One of my key achievements includes leading the Green Collection Corner project at Gameloft Vietnam, which addressed ineffective waste sorting in the workplace. By collaborating with various departments, I installed user-friendly collection points and introduced a reward system to encourage employee participation. In 2023, this initiative successfully collected over 1,000 batteries, 200kg of cardboard, 500 plastic bottles, and 300 plastic bags, all sent to a local recycling center. Additionally, I launched the EcoThink contest, which generated over 20 actionable green ideas from employees within four months, fostering a culture of collaboration and environmental responsibility.
Beyond the workplace, I am the founder of the Give and Receive Clothing Saigon Facebook group, a non-profit initiative facilitating the exchange of unused clothing in Ho Chi Minh City. With over 3,100 members, the group has facilitated thousands of clothing exchanges, creating a vibrant and sustainable community.
My work aligns with Sustainable Development Goal 13: Climate Action, particularly Target 13.3, which emphasizes improving education, awareness, and capacity-building to combat climate change. I am committed to using my skills to promote sustainable practices in workplaces and communities, empowering individuals and organisations to take meaningful action.
Volunteering with Universal Youth Alliance aligns with my mission to drive environmental awareness and sustainable practices globally. I am excited to bring my expertise in communication, community engagement, and environmental advocacy to support initiatives that inspire and empower youth to create a more sustainable future.
