Nghe An Newspaper and Radio & Television Station win third prize in the writing competition "Footprints on the Journey of Innovation".
On the morning of October 31st, in Hanoi, the Central Emulation and Commendation Board (Ministry of Interior) held an awards ceremony for the writing competition on exemplary individuals in the emulation movements "The whole country joins forces to build new rural areas" and "For the poor - Leaving no one behind" for the period 2021-2025.
With the theme: "Footprints on the Journey of Innovation," the writing contest was organized to enhance the dissemination of information, identify, honor, and replicate advanced models, groundbreaking initiatives, good practices, and outstanding contributions of individuals and collectives in implementing the emulation movement "The whole country joins hands to build new rural areas" and the emulation movement "For the poor - Leaving no one behind" in the period 2021 - 2025.
This will strongly inspire the proactive, creative, united, self-reliant, and self-sufficient spirit of the community in building new rural areas and eradicating hunger and poverty. It will also raise awareness and responsibility throughout society regarding the importance of the emulation movements "The whole country builds new rural areas" and "For the poor - Leaving no one behind".
At the same time, through public awareness campaigns, we aim to mobilize additional social resources and encourage organizations, businesses, and individuals to join hands for the poor and for the goal of sustainable rural development.
According to the Organizing Committee, after two months, the competition attracted more than 1,000 entries from news agencies nationwide. The entries focused on several main themes, including: exemplary individuals and groups with innovative initiatives and effective methods in building new rural areas; creative models and solutions in production development and income improvement; stories of overcoming difficulties, helping the community, and ensuring no one is left behind; and outstanding examples of supporting the poor, vulnerable, and ethnic minorities to improve their lives.
Many works address the proactive role of citizens contributing their efforts, intellect, and assets to work with the government in building new rural areas; the unity and solidarity within the community to transform the local landscape and jointly eradicate poverty; the role of political and social organizations and associations in accompanying people in building new rural areas and achieving sustainable poverty reduction; and exemplary models of economic development linked to the preservation of rural culture and environment, such as the OCOP model, community tourism, and traditional craft villages. Individuals who harmoniously combine economic development with preserving cultural identity and protecting natural resources; pioneers in changing outdated practices, developing clean production, and lifelong learning... have a strong ripple effect and are recognized and held up as role models by the community.
In addition, the works also address exemplary applications of digital technology in management, production, and daily life, contributing to the modernization of agriculture and rural areas and gradually changing the lives of the people, especially the poor...
