This progress report is the subsequent plan of establishing Model Environment Protection Districts and Environmental Friendly Urban. In addition to the continuous promotion of the two plans listed above, the main objectives this year are the continuation of those from last year, which include the control of vector-borne diseases and the newly implemented environmental hygiene business. To achieve these objectives, three measures were conducted: firstly, training seminars on eliminating mosquito breeding sources were held; secondly, practical instructing sessions were provided for local residents in the community; thirdly, assistance was provided in inspecting the implementation of environmental hygiene business.
Through these measures, we hope to encourage the residents in each community to recognize and personally engage in the elimination of breeding sources. We hope that by raising people’s awareness on cleaning and maintaining their surrounding environment and further spreading the concept to the people and communities nearby, collective awareness on environmental protection can be raised which then creates further impacts.
On the aspect of achievements, an observing event on Environmental Friendly Urban and a fall season coastal cleanup event were held with a total of 334 people’s participation. In promoting the prevention and control of Dengue fever, six training seminars on eliminating mosquito breeding sources were held with 572 people joining the seminars. 70% of the participants were of the township (city) offices, the cleaning squad of villages and communities, and the Environmental Protection Bureaus. 23 instructing sessions were held aiming to provide practical training for the representatives, volunteers, and residents in the village and the neighborhood. 1232 people from 67 villages and neighborhoods participated in these training sessions. In addition, to assist in the promotion of coastal business and understanding the composition of marine debris, two International Coastal Cleanup (ICC) monitoring activities on coastal debris were held with a total of 91 participants.
To improve the environmental hygiene quality, a group of consultants focusing on vector-borne diseases and environmental hygiene was established. In addition, the research and analysis on the practices and management of public toilets maintenance were conducted and reports were submitted. Moreover, four conferences were held to assess and review the implementation which took place this year in order to provide strategies suggestions for future development. These include deliberations conducted by coastal area managing units, a press conference on mosquito-borne disease prevention, a conference on coastal cleanup and maintaining coastal cleanliness, and a consultation seminar conducted by mosquito experts and scholars. In addition, assistance was provided by conducting four on-site surveys on beaches and at coastal cleanup events. 16 inspections on multiple mobilizations for Dengue prevention and two environmental cleaning events were conducted.
