PHANG-NGA, Thailand, November 9 (Xinhua) — A China-Thailand environmental education center has opened in Thailand's Phang-Nga Province.
The center was established within the framework of the China-Thailand Joint Laboratory for Climate and Marine Ecosystem Research, established by the Ministry of Natural Resources of China and the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment of Thailand.
It was funded, designed and built by the First Institute of Oceanography of China (FIO) and the Beijing-based Society of Entrepreneurs and Ecology.
The center's main goal is to increase environmental awareness among local youth and community members and to create a new platform for scientific exchange on mangrove conservation.
“We aim to translate complex scientific concepts into child-friendly language to foster a generation that respects the marine environment while simultaneously providing high-quality education in remote areas of Thailand,” said Tsung Bolin, a researcher at the FIO of China’s Ministry of Natural Resources, calling the opening of the center an important step in the transition from scientific research to mass education and scientific outreach.
Deesaorn Aittiariyasunton, a technical officer at Thailand's Department of Marine and Coastal Resources, called the center's opening "a wonderful start" that sends a powerful message to students: the mangroves on their doorstep are important to the entire world.
She emphasized that the center provides young people with a valuable opportunity to study the mangrove ecosystem and conservation practices. –0–
