The campaign aims to encourage and call on the whole society to participate in planting, protecting and developing urban green trees in Son Tra District, and to increase the proportion of green areas, thereby contributing to the improvement and protection of the urban environment, and meeting local residents’ need of green space.

Also, the campaign helps to raise public awareness and responsibilities in planting, caring for and protecting trees, creating a green - clean - beautiful environment, mitigating natural disasters, and responding to climate change. This will significantly contribute to the effective implementation of the national project 'Growing 1 billion trees in Viet Nam in the 2021-2025 period' and the project ‘Building parks and stroll gardens in Son Tra District in 2022’.

Also at the launching ceremony, the Son Tra District People's Committee signed a memorandum of understanding with the GreenViet Biodiversity Conservation Centre (GreenViet) on planting and caring for trees in parks and stroll gardens across the district.
