(HBO) – The self-managing group of families on environmental protection and climate change response in Sau Ha village, Thanh Luong commune (Luong Son district) of the northwestern province of Hoa Binh was launched at the start of July with 49 members.

Chairwoman of the district’s Fatherland Front Committee Nguyen Thi Hoa said it was the fifth self-managing group in the commune. With the principle of the people’s willingness, self-awareness, self-protection and self-funding, the model has strongly expanded over the years.

Currently, the province is home to 4,225 self-managing groups on all fields. Up to 340 residential areas, 69 communes, wards, towns, four districts and cities are applying the model, building 1,598 self-managing groups of families, 343 self-managing families and clusters and 842 streets managed by women on environmental protection, among others. Some districts take the lead in the number of groups, namely Yen Thuy with 895, Mai Chau 772, Lac Son 730 and Lac Thuy 615.

 

Police and people in Ky Son town (Ky Son district) discuss activities of self-managing groups on security in Zone 5.

The self-managing model helps promote diligence and creativity, along with potential and strengths of families, and enables them support each other in science-technology, breeding stocks, capital and consumption of products.

There are 431 self-managing groups on economy, especially the "Helping each other in technology, breeding stocks and consumption” model in Tan Lac district, the "Self-managing group of families works to enhance economic growth”, the "Interest-free loan” and the "Household economy” in Hoa Binh city. Activities of self-managing groups also tap potential of families and raise their income, reduce poverty and grow rich.

Regarding cultural and social affairs, the province is home to 1,068 groups on environmental protection and population and family planning.

Meanwhile, as the establishment of self-managing groups on security is viewed as an important task to ensure security and social order at grassroots level, the number of groups on security is the highest among all with 2,756. Notable groups include the "Villages of culture – defence”, the "Self-managing group of families and residential areas on security”, the "Self-managing family and parish” and the "Anti-criminal alarm”, among others./.
