TVU – Tra Vinh University fosters international cooperation by hosting a high-level delegation from East Java province, Indonesia, focusing on environmental and agricultural initiatives.
TVU welcomes Indonesian environmental experts to enhance cross-border collaboration on October 23, 2024. The delegation, headed by Ms. Carrina Lim, Regional Manager of The Water Agency, includes more than ten natural resources and environmental management specialists.

Ms. Lim emphasizes the potential for joint initiatives, particularly in environmental research, advanced technology application, and agricultural development projects benefiting Tra Vinh province and the Mekong Delta.
The university arranges a comprehensive program for the delegation, including a campus tour and a field visit to the water storage model at Con Chim (Bird Islet), Hoa Minh commune. This practical demonstration underscores TVU’s role in developing climate-adaptive agricultural solutions.
