Defining education promotion as one of its key tasks, over the years, the Hoa Binh city’s Association for Promoting Education has actively coordinated with associations, unions and schools to strengthen communications and raise public awareness of the significance of learning for each individual, family, family clan and the whole society. The work has received great support from the local Party Committee and administration.

Since the beginning of this year, the associations at all levels have focused on implementing the life-long learning movement among families, clans, agencies, and the community.

To date, the city has had 28,900 learning families, accounting for 91.5% of the total, along with 65 learning clans, 200 learning communities at the village level, 78 learning units at the communal level, and 19 leaning units at the district level.

Localities with outstanding performance in the work include Thinh Lang, Dan Chu, Huu Nghi, Dong Tien, Tan Thinh, Ky Son, and Mong Hoa communes and wards.

The popularisation of "Tieng trong khuyen hoc” (drum sounds encouraging learning) movement via Zalo, an initiative of Tan Thinh ward’s Association for Promoting Education, has been multiplied in all sub-associations.

The city has developed 275 community development clubs and 423 similar groups engaging in communications on a project to strengthen life-long learning movement among families, clans, agencies and the community.

Trinh Thi Thanh Thuy, Chairwoman of the Hoa Binh City’s Association for Promoting Education, attributed the results to the great attention and support from the provincial Association for Promoting Education as well as the Party Committees and People’s Committees at all levels. She said that in the time to come the association will continue to work hard to gain more achievements in 2023, thus laying the foundation for the building of a learning society in the city./.
