The Green Forest Honors Vietnamese Women

From primary forests to lush nurseries, the skilled hands of Vietnamese women have been and continue to play a vital role in creating a green and sustainable Vietnam.
October 20th - Vietnamese Women's Day - is not only a time to honor the beauty and grace of Vietnamese women, but also an opportunity to recognize their significant contributions across all areas of society. In particular, the field of forest conservation and resource development stands as a vibrant testament to the strength and intellect of Vietnamese women.
From female scientists dedicated to studying biodiversity, to the women in mountainous regions safeguarding forest headwaters, the role of women in preserving the green of the nation is undeniable. They are the mothers of the forest, nurturing and caring for each seedling and blade of grass.
The Vietnam Forest Resources Museum is proud to record and display touching stories of women who have devoted their lives to forest protection. From photographs and artifacts to the stories shared, everything radiates the beauty of Vietnamese women—strong as towering trees, resilient as vines, and full of vitality like young sprouts.
On this year's October 20th, the Vietnam Forest Resources Museum extends its deepest gratitude to all the women who have contributed to the development of the country’s forestry sector. Wishing all women good health, happiness, and success in life. Every woman is an essential piece that contributes to the vibrant picture of Vietnam’s green forests.
