“NGUOCInternational” is an international project with 3 key pillars: Climate Change, Sex Education, and Gender Issues for Southeast Asia youngsters.
Our mission is to render international problems into personal ones through realistic perspectives of different people who have diverse kinds of stories related to our 3 key topics. Moreover, we will provide people with fresher and deeper understanding via not only cooperating with domestic and international organizations and clubs, but also participants’ ideas and artworks.
NGUOCInternational is an international platform with three key pillars: Climate Change, Sex Education, and Gender Issues for the Southeast Asia Youth to not only show off their artistic skills but also express their initiatives and viewpoints on Social Justice Promotion through digital media, visual arts, and environment-friendly materials. NGUOCInternational includes two phases of a virtual art competition, one virtual international workshop, and one regional exhibition. We envision that NGUOCInternational would offer an excellent insight into controversial problems for 500,000+ people and empower finalists to implement future projects delivering meaningful messages of Social Justice to the world.
CLIMATE CHANGE, SEX EDUCATION, and GENDER ISSUES are the most urgent aspects of Social Justice that we would like to concentrate on. With CLIMATE CHANGE, in 2019 The World Bank has singled out Vietnam as one of six countries most severely affected by climate change. VNExpress, a Vietnamese newspaper, published that this country suffered 226 extreme events in 1999-2018 with a death toll of 285 and losses of more than $2 billion per year. About SEX EDUCATION and GENDER ISSUES: Vietnam has the highest abortion rate in Asia (an average of 2.5 abortions per woman). Each year, there are over 300,000 officially-reported abortions, 64,5% of which is for adolescents’ unprotected sex. In 2020, Human Rights Watch has released a report which worried that pervasive myths about sexual orientation and gender identity in Vietnam can lead to violence and discrimination on relating youth. With international exchanges among ASEAN youngsters through a creative and inspirational form of communication: “art initiatives”, we strongly believe that the youth will get wider and deeper perspectives about burning issues; afterward spread positive values and turn ambitions into realistic actions for our community.
NGUOCInternational also creates an ideal opportunity for youngsters to make their creative and artistic skills be appreciated and enhanced. Moreover, their creations are believed to bring out a more comprehensive understanding and inspire people through graphic arts instead of complicated statistics and facts as usual. Then not only their awareness would be fostered but also responsibility could be shouldered. TMoreover, SJP will be run every year with topics relating to “Social Justice Promotion”. We hope that our project could call for a drastic change in countries’ policy of gender equality, sex education, and climate change such as legalizing same-sex marriage, offering sex education courses in secondary/high schools in Vietnam, or accompanying projects to fight for a healthy and pleasant environment.

FIELD TRIP: Untold Stories About...
The popular presence of handicraft products is a testament to the strong development of craft village traditions in Vietnam. But, besides these bigger profits, we are witnessing a great change in the environment and bad changes to the quality of life.
Understanding and understanding their own role, NGUOC KEY INITIATIVES are determined to make these "truths" like an alarm bell, alerting everyone to the need to be responsible as well as respect the nature around us.

Our Advisors
Mr. Mohammed Redwan Chowdhury Bangladesh
Mohammed Redwan Chowdhury is currently pursuing a Bachelor's degree in the field of economics from the American International University Bangladesh. He had the privilege to work, with the largest underprivileged community of his country,
on a project that expands education from primary to secondary levels with lower cost and better technology. It changed the lives of 300+ deprived students, which
had a positive domino effect on public welfare. Simultaneously he is also working
with various youth platforms such as speaker corner and think content. He is an
alternative economist in university hours and a teacher as well as a content creator in personal time. His biggest dream is to see a world with social justice
and without the existence of Pareto optimality.

Ms. Zea Anne Denise Go Philippines
For several years, I have been a student leader and a journalist who pioneered the organization of different events in my previous institutions, and have written and edited for publications. I have joined multiple research and socio-political conventions- both local and international and have organized several competitions myself. I have invested my time in pursuit of these different events, activities and positions as I always aspire to utilize my platforms in order to forward my advocacies for social equality, climate justice and political awareness.
Currently, I am a leader and mentor in Climate Reality PH, hosting projects and participating in activities that support or advocate for climate justice. I am also a member of Philippine Medical Students Association as I am also studying medicine in my 2nd year of BS-MD program. With or without my platforms, I still am dedicated to continue doing my best for the people I am already serving and for the society I have yet to serve.
Quote: "I aspire to witness finalists who uphold the value of integrity and justice to their platforms such that they could be effective advocates of heartfelt service and positive systemic change"
