SPIEEP: End of Project Reportarea litter might be the major issue, while for another area issues relating to livestockmight hold greater weight. Once priority issues had been identified for each communityaction plans were drawn up to address these issues at the local level.Subsequent to these workshops visits were made to four communes (Sa Pa, Ta Phin,Trung Chai and Ta Van) in order to• check on follow-up activities agreed in the previous training courses• gather feedback from the local Women’s Unions and Youth AssociationsAll these communes had started some activities in their respective villages. However,some had done more than others due to two main reasons. Firstly it had been only twomonths since the training workshops and the local people felt that this was insufficienttime; and secondly because the period between the workshops and the visit was harvesttime and little time was afforded away from the crops. It seems likely that greater effortwill wait until after this harvesting season.3.1.3.5 Youth Association study tour to Cuc Phuong National ParkThe study tour was conducted in cooperation with ENV (Education for Nature - Vietnam)- Cuc Phuong Conservation Project who organised an environmental education trainingcourse for the Sa Pa Youth Association.

SPIEEP: End of Project ReportBox 8. Activities undertaken on the Cuc Phuong study tour.• Introduction: what is environmental education?• Introduction to the Conservation Awareness Programme (CAP)• CAP school programme (including methodology)• CAP community programme (including methodology)• CAP Tourist Environmental Education (TEE) programme (including methodology)• Practical activities (including visiting schools to observe the school programme in action)• Development of environmental activity ideas for the Youth Association in Sa Pa• Field visit into Cuc Phuong National Park3.1.3.6 Literacy manualThe literacy manual was developed in a similar war to the teachers resource manuals (seesection 3.3.1.2). Fifteen adult literacy teachers from three schools (Sa Pa, Y Linh Ho andLao Chai) attended the literacy manual development workshop.Objectives• Collect background information about literacy education in Sa Pa• Identify the environmental education topics for literacy classes• Develop the manual structureActivitiesThe activities began with a brief assessment on the current situation regarding literacyeducation in Sa Pa district. The subsequent manual development was based to fit in withthe current literacy teaching structure.Each literacy class operates for a period of 24 weeks. It was agreed with the teachers thatthe best method would be to incorporate the environmental topics into one of the threelessons per week. This would therefore require 24 topics to be developed.Chosen topics were based on those topics developed for the primary school curriculum.However, if teachers felt that there were other topics of greater importance or relevancethen these were also considered for inclusion to the manuals.Participants were divided into two groups and each group was given 12 topics to discus.The aim of this discussion was to decide on the most important issues (content) to becovered within each topic. For each topic one member of the workshop presented issuesto the rest of the workshop participants for discussion.Frontier Vietnam Environment Research Report 23 14
