Representing True North International School (TNIS) and Vietnam, Nghia and his team have developed an innovative initiative applying scientific agricultural methods such as hydroponics and aquaponics to create a sustainable circular food system. The project aims to reduce food waste, encourage environmental awareness, and inspire meaningful sustainability actions within and beyond the TNIS community.
We are incredibly proud of Nghia’s leadership and vision in driving sustainable change. The final award ceremony will be held on January 13, 2026, in Abu Dhabi, with a grand prize of USD 150,000.
