The Chemical Command of Vietnam in collaboration with the Municipal Department of Culture, Sports and Tourism of HCMC and the Da Nang Municipal of Culture and Sports on November 7 kicked off the photo exhibition themed “Revitalization of dead lands”. |
The exhibition features three major parts including: Addressing the environment contaminated with war-left poisonous substances, Post-war bomb and mine clearance, and Revitalization of dead lands |
It provides visitors better understandings about the consequences of the chemical warfare caused by the US military in Vietnam, while calling for social community and international friends to join hands to support Agent Orange/dioxin victims, protect the ecological environment, and revive dead lands after the war, contributing to the country’s socio-economic development |
