To ensure the Dong Nai Youth Festival reaches a wide audience of Youth Union members, association members, and young people, the Provincial Youth Union has requested that grassroots Youth Unions in communes and wards actively disseminate information and promote the event within their local communities. The Youth Unions of Chon Thanh, Binh Phuoc, and Tam Hiep wards are expected to proactively report to their respective Party Committees on their coordination with the Provincial Youth Union to organize the festival in accordance with the planned content and requirements.
