The campaign is to promote the rights of children which need protecting, thus respecting children and allowing them to live and thrive in a safe and healthy environment, in this digital era.

Addressing the ceremony, Vice State President Dang Thi Ngoc Thinh urged authorities and individuals at all levels to work harder to, from the bottom of their hearts, prevent violence against children and join hands in expanding good deeds and acts of kindness towards children. Such good deeds towards children should be done not only during the action month but also every day and everywhere, she stressed.
