Equipping knowledge about climate change for ethnic minority students in Hoa Binh

The series of communication events “Spreading knowledge, enhancing the future” recently held at 4 schools in Lac Son and Da Bac districts (Hoa Binh province) is not only a useful playground, but also a journey to spread knowledge about climate change, reduce natural disaster risks and enhance the spirit of proactive response in the community of students and teachers.

The communication activity series "Spreading knowledge - Elevating the future" is implemented by the "Moving Forward" Project (FBF) with funding from the Embassy of Ireland in Vietnam.

According to the organizers, Hoa Binh province is located in a region with many volatile climates with severe thunderstorms, tornadoes, hail, lightning, flash floods and landslides... If the local ethnic minority communities are equipped with knowledge, ways to react, adapt and protect themselves, it will help prevent and reduce the consequences caused by climate change.

The communication activities "Spreading knowledge - Enhancing the future" were held at 4 schools in 2 districts of Lac Son and Da Bac, Hoa Binh province. Activities such as propaganda on disaster risk reduction, golden bell contest, and painting with environmental themes attracted the enthusiastic participation of hundreds of students.
