An exhibition featuring the Canadian Arctic will take place in Hanoi from August 21 to 28.
Titled “Accessible Arctic,” the event showcases 36 photos depicting nature and life in the arctic, which makes up over 40% of Canada’s landmass and is home to more than 100,000 people. The pictures have been assembled and curated by the Canadian Museum of Nature together with Canadian Geographic Magazine.
According to Deborah Chatsis, the Canadian Ambassador to Vietnam, the exhibition provides a unique opportunity for Canada, the current Chair of the Arctic Council, to promote responsible Arctic resource development, safe Arctic shipping and sustainable circumpolar communities.
The event is also part of the activities to celebrate the 40th anniversary of Vietnam - Canada diplomatic ties.
“Accessible Arctic” will run at the Vietnam Women’s Museum at 36 Ly Thuong Kiet Street.
