Launching campaign in response to 2026 National Week for Clean Water and Environmental Sanitation

On April 29, at Doi Can High School, the Thai Nguyen Department of Agriculture and Environment, in coordination with relevant departments, agencies, and An Khanh Commune, held a launching ceremony in response to the 2026 National Week for Clean Water and Environmental Sanitation under the theme: “Safe Water Supply – Digital Technology Application – Sustainable Development.”

Mobile communication activities are conducted to spread environmental protection messages to the public.

By the end of 2025, the proportion of rural residents in the province using hygienic water reached 98%. Of this figure, 55% had access to clean water that meets the standards set by the Ministry of Health. The province aims to raise the percentage of households using clean water that meets national standards to 63% in 2026 and targets 80% by 2030.

At the ceremony, leaders of departments, agencies, and local authorities called on every citizen, especially young people, to take practical actions such as using water wisely, not dumping waste into water sources, and actively joining sanitation campaigns in residential areas and schools.

Immediately after the launching ceremony, the school carried out a general environmental clean-up campaign, collecting waste around the school campus. At the same time, mobile communication activities were conducted to spread environmental protection messages to the public.
