Attending the ceremony were comrade Le Van Luong - Secretary of the Provincial Youth Union; representatives of the Provincial Party Committee's Mass Mobilization Committee; the Board of Directors and Standing Committees of universities and colleges with volunteer student teams participating and more than 300 union members and youths of the volunteer student teams.

Speaking at the Launching Ceremony of the 2023 “Green Summer” Volunteer Campaign, Comrade Le Van Luong - Secretary of the Provincial Youth Union stated: 2023 is the 24th year that the Summer Youth Volunteer Campaign has been deployed nationwide. 24 years of accompanying the national summer volunteer campaign are 24 exciting summers of Nghe An youth, affirming their youthful strength and igniting the passion for volunteering.

Each stop of the young people has brought joy, hope, and faith in the journey ahead to the difficult villages and situations in need of help... and most of all, each summer that passes, the young people and student volunteers become more mature, live beautifully, live usefully, and live more responsibly towards society.

This year's "Green Summer" volunteer campaign is the first campaign season of the new Congress term, a peak activity for all levels of the Youth Union, Association, union members, youth and students to compete to carry out meaningful youth projects and tasks, bringing the Resolution of the Youth Union Congresses at all levels into practice in the work of the Youth Union and youth movements.

One of the new features of this year's "Green Summer" Campaign is the policy of "3 connections" according to the orientation of the Resolution of the 12th National Youth Union Congress, including: Connecting forces between union members, local youth and volunteer students; connecting areas between regions, areas and localities; connecting communities between the Youth Union organization and clubs, teams, groups, organizations and individuals.

To effectively implement these tasks, the Provincial Youth Union Standing Committee has directed the establishment of 33 "Green Summer" volunteer teams with intensive focus and participation of more than 800 union members and young people to support key areas in remote areas, areas with difficult economic conditions, ethnic minority, border and special areas; Youth Villages; and disadvantaged villages, hamlets and villages that are completing the criteria for building new rural areas.

At the ceremony, the Provincial Youth Union Standing Committee presented the establishment decision, presented gifts to the volunteer student teams and presented the flag to launch the Campaign.
