In 2010, VPHA implemented actively the intervention program on reducing dioxin exposure for local residents in the 4 wards in Da Nang through various communication activities.

The program’s counselors provided over eleven thousand households with information, leaflets and pictures, conducted nineteen broadcasts and forty five ward meetings. These activities were closely and strictly monitored. Thus, VPHA could timely provide its technical and professional support.

For the first months of 2011, VPHA has continued to provide more posters on preventing dioxin exposure through food for households whose posters was coming off due to bad weather condition. Through this activity, those households will be reminded the prevention measures. Other 200 new households have also been counseled since the beginning of February.

Overall these effective communication activities have greatly contributed to improving the residents’ knowledge on the measures to prevent dioxin exposure through foods. When the intervention program finishes, VPHA will do the post-intervention survey to evaluate the change of knowledge, attitude and practice of residents in preventing dioxin exposure through foods.
