Speaking at the program, Ms. Hoang Thi Tu Anh - Vice President of the Central Council of the Young Pioneers, Director of the Center for Support and Development of Vietnamese Children said that this is a model that has been effectively implemented at Young Pioneers' bases with the goal of communicating to raise awareness and responsibility of each family about the current situation and consequences of child drowning accidents. Along with that, strengthening and fostering skills to prevent and combat child drowning and the 2016 Children's Law.

Through the festival activities, children have the opportunity to improve their knowledge and skills, enhance communication, share experiences, and change their awareness and skills. More importantly, after the festival ends and they return to their hometowns, each child will become an active messenger to convey the message to their peers to equip themselves with the necessary skills to protect themselves in emergency situations.
