Prince William arrived in Hanoi on November 16th to attend the International Conference on Combating Illicit Trade in Wildlife (IWT), organized by the Vietnamese Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development on November 17-18.

The prince will join world leaders in fighting to protect elephants, rhinos, and other rare animals from extinction. The conference brings together representatives from various countries who are committed to working together to strengthen the fight against poachers and illegal wildlife traffickers.

Prince William is actively involved in activities aimed at combating the illegal wildlife trade. According to the BBC, the Duke of Cambridge is currently the chairman of "United for Wildlife," a joint project of seven of the world's largest wildlife conservation organizations, under the auspices of the Royal British Charity.

“This is a matter of great concern to the Prince. Prince William understands that the people of Vietnam share this concern, that we have only about 25 years left to save some iconic animals from extinction. The Prince believes that Vietnam truly has an opportunity to be a leader in wildlife conservation efforts and he looks forward to discussing this when he meets with the Prime Minister and the Vice President of Vietnam,” a statement from Kensington Palace said.

The statement added that the Prince is also looking forward to strolling and exploring the streets of Hanoi. During this visit, the Prince will visit a school, a cafe, and meet with Vietnamese people of his generation who are active in fields such as music, art, and business.

"Thank you for welcoming the Prince. The Prince is very much looking forward to meeting the people of Vietnam," the statement emphasized.

Prince William is second in line to the British throne after his father, Prince Charles. The Duke of Cambridge married Catherine Middleton in 2011 and the couple have two children.
