Also under the project, the Nam Khat secondary semi-boarding school for ethnic minorities ran an educational game that attracted more than 400 students.

They targeted children, their parents or caregivers, and local authorities. Included were training courses for 100 children in Mu Cang Chai and 51 parents as well as commune-level child forums and open discussions that drew the attention of the community, social organisations, and authorities toward child protection works.
