In its first year, the 2018 Lower Mekong Initiative Young Scientist Program cohort included 24 young researchers from the five Lower Mekong countries who solved challenges related to water, energy and environmental sustainability. The four-week program in Vietnam included workshops, networking events and a scientific symposium to share knowledge, ideas and experiences such as authoring peer-reviewed scientific research papers. They also met with companies in the region to see what solutions are already being developed and to learn about the skills employers are looking for in prospective employees.
