Women of Phuc Khanh commune: Joining hands to build a sustainable homeland

Join hands to enrich our homeland

Realizing that the flavor of her hometown's green rice is delicious, not inferior to products from other places but has not been promoted, Ms. Ban Thi Ngon, Gia Ha village, boldly learned and invested in production to turn traditional green rice into a typical local product.

From a small family scale, she boldly invested in building a production facility, both increasing productivity and preserving traditional handicrafts. The family's Viet Dan branded green rice products are popular in the market, and are sold as soon as they are made, creating jobs for many women in the village.

Leaders of Phuc Khanh commune visited the V2 orange growing model in Tri Ngoai village owned by women members.

From low -economic- efficiency corn and cassava growing on the hillsides, in recent years, Ms. Hoang Thi Dong, Tri Ngoai village, has boldly switched to growing V2 oranges. Up to now, more than 2 hectares of oranges have been harvested, bringing her family a stable income of more than 120 million VND each year. Ms. Dong also regularly shares her experience in growing and caring for oranges with women's association members who come to learn and replicate the model.

These are just two of many effective economic models owned by women in Phuc Khanh commune. Not only being diligent in production, many women have boldly innovated their thinking and been creative in transforming the structure of crops and livestock. Economic models owned by women such as growing V2 oranges, raising free-range chickens, black pigs, honey bees, meat rabbits and sturgeon have brought in stable income, helping hundreds of families escape poverty and become rich legitimately. The number of economic models owned by women is increasing, demonstrating the innovation of thinking and efforts to overcome difficulties of women.

Along with economic development, the commune's women are also pioneers in environmental protection, contributing to building a green - clean - beautiful countryside. Projects such as flower gates, flower fences and flower roads over 5 km long have changed the appearance of villages and hamlets. The lighting system for rural roads and regular general cleaning activities at 100% of the branches not only create a spacious living space but also raise people's awareness of environmental protection.

Spreading the model "From livelihood to security"

One of the outstanding activities is the program of giving breeding chickens and supporting cinnamon seeds to poor women, single women and households in difficult circumstances. Not only simply supporting livestock and crop breeds, these gifts open up new livelihood opportunities, helping members to create their own income, gradually improving family security.

Along with that, the Association organizes training on livestock farming techniques, guides cinnamon planting and care, and closely monitors the implementation process to reduce risks and ensure efficiency. Thanks to that, many members have formed small but stable economic models, contributing to improving income right in the locality.

The model “From livelihood to security” is also associated with the movement “Family of 5 no, 3 clean”, creating a synchronous change from economic development to building a civilized, safe and clean living environment. Thereby, women are not only supported in their livelihood but also accompanied on the journey to improve their quality of life.

The movement activities of the Women's Union of the commune are widely carried out throughout the commune, creating a vibrant competitive atmosphere.

In the cultural and social fields, Phuc Khanh women continue to affirm their core role. Artistic teams and volleyball teams are maintained regularly in all branches, creating a vibrant competitive atmosphere and connecting the community. These activities not only improve the spiritual life and health of members but also contribute to preserving and promoting the traditional cultural identity of the Tay, Nung, Dao, Mong ethnic groups... The new rural appearance in Phuc Khanh is therefore not only spacious in terms of infrastructure but also rich in cultural life, imbued with national identity.

The results achieved have affirmed that women in Phuc Khanh commune are an important factor in the cause of building new rural areas. Not only are they the key labor force, they are also at the forefront of preserving the environment, building happy families and contributing to enriching the cultural and spiritual life of the residential area.

With practical activities, Phuc Khanh women are joining hands to build a rich and beautiful homeland with rich identity.

Ms. Vu Thi Trang Nhung - President of the Women's Union of Phuc Khanh commune said: In the coming time, the Women's Union of the commune will continue to synchronously deploy key solutions such as supporting members to improve their knowledge of production, start-ups, and application of science and technology. Continue to mobilize social resources, replicate models suitable for highland conditions, aiming at the goal that each member has the opportunity to rise up in association with the movement "Family of 5 no, 3 clean". At the same time, the union will actively propose initiatives and models suitable to reality, contributing to perfecting the new rural criteria.

With determination and concrete actions, Phuc Khanh women are joining hands to build a rich, civilized homeland, becoming a livable and rich-in-identity countryside.
