On September 8, 2025, Boromarajonani College of Nursing Nakhon Phanom, Nakhon Phanom University, in collaboration with Nakhon Phanom Municipality, organized the project “Learning Management on E-Cigarettes in Children (Smoke Free)” with the participation of 586 municipal school students. This session was held at Tessaban 3 School (Phinitpittayanusorn) for 162 Grade 7 students. Mr. Nakharin Lueabunchoo, the school principal, led teachers and students in attending the event.
The opening ceremony was honored by Mr. Chokdee Manklakiri, Deputy Mayor of Nakhon Phanom Municipality, who presided over the event. Asst. Prof. Sirinat Phokaphatchphubet, on behalf of the organizing committee, presented the objectives and significance of the project. Dr. Supranee Sithikan, Dean of Boromarajonani College of Nursing Nakhon Phanom, Nakhon Phanom University, expressed appreciation to all parties for their support and collaboration in driving the project forward.
The project aims to raise awareness and understanding of the harms and dangers of e-cigarettes, while enhancing refusal skills, decision-making abilities, and mental resilience, enabling students to protect themselves from risky behaviors. It also provides knowledge of relevant laws and essential issues on sex education in an appropriate manner. The initiative is financially supported by the Nakhon Phanom Municipality Health Security Fund.
The program will be continued in other municipal schools, from primary to secondary levels, to instill positive attitudes and essential life skills in students. This effort serves as a vital foundation for improving quality of life and building sustainable immunity for children and youth in the future.
