The activity attracted 520 students and nearly 40 teachers from Phu Tan secondary school. Through short films, presentations, and group discussions, the students could understand the harmful effects of the waste, thus improving their awareness and changing their “behaviors” to the waste. Besides that, the students were also encouraged to act to the guideline “Youngsters do simple things” such as making classroom decoration products from recycled materials, coloring placards with environment protection slogans, etc
