Under the theme "For a green planet", this year's festival attracts the participation of seven international teams from Russia, South Korea, Japan, China, Thailand, the Philippines, and Indonesia, along with the host, Vietnam.
The programme will not only bring joy with its outdoor activities, but will also raise awareness of environmental protection among the children, according to Dang Diem Quynh, Head of the Organising Committee.
During the five days of the festival, the children will participate in main activities such as a “Green Earth” art gala, which will be broadcast live on VTV1 chanel at 8:10 pm on June 1, with the participation of the singer Nhi Dong Nhi, little singer Phuong Khanh; and “Friendship days” programme with the participation of children from the eight participating countries.
Earlier, the Ministry of Labour, Invalids and Social Affairs launched the 2018 Action Month for Children, themed “For children’s safe and healthy living”, in Phu Tho province, in response to International Children’s Day (June 1).
The campaign sets to promote the children’s rights to protection, respect and living in a safe and healthy environment in the digital era. At the ceremony, the National Fund for Vietnamese Children presented scholarships and gifts to 60 impoverished children to motivate them to overcome difficulties. A delegation from the fund also visited SOS Children’s Village in the provincial capital of Viet Tri and gave gifts to children here later the same day.
During the action month for children in 2018, the Ministry of Labour, Invalids and Social Affairs will hold a series of events and activities to support children in need. Meanwhile, the National Fund for Vietnamese Children will allocate more than VND14 billion (US$616,000) for activities to support about 5,000 children from difficult backgrounds across the country.
