Source: People's Daily - Anhui Channel

In recent years, Niuzhen Town, Taihu County, Anhui Province, has taken the construction of beautiful villages as a key task to promote rural revitalization, combined with the improvement of the rural living environment, deepened ideological understanding, grasped the implementation of policies and measures, made a fuss about long-term mechanisms, taken multiple measures to solidly promote the construction of beautiful villages, and wrote a "metamorphosis" of rural areas.

Strengthen leadership and re-guidance, and transform the promotion of towns and villages into the initiative of the masses

The town has set up a leading group headed by the main responsible person of the government, and established a four-level network structure of town, village, group and household to ensure that the construction of beautiful villages is grasped and managed. In the stage of construction and mobilization, the party committee and government have assigned personnel to the village group for many times to talk face-to-face and in-depth exchanges with the project council, party member representatives, and villager representatives, clarify policies, clarify ideas, and draw blueprints. On the spot, they answered questions of concern to the masses, dispelled doubts, unified thinking, and greatly increased the enthusiasm of the masses in building beautiful villages. At the same time, we should actively organize members of the "two committees," councils, and mass representatives of the villages and villages where the construction sites are located to go out to visit and learn from practices, experiences, changes, and results. Through visits and studies, whether it is the "two committees" of the village, the council and the ordinary people, they all have feelings, visions, and motivation.

Listen to the will of the people, know the people's hearts, and transform the intentions of the masses into a blueprint for design

Pay attention to focusing on the "thoughts, needs, and gains" of the masses in the planning and design stage, fully listen to the opinions of the masses, fully respect the wishes of the masses, and "ensure the interests of the masses and facilitate the lives of the masses" throughout the entire process of planning and construction. For example, skillfully use the idle wasteland of the masses, carry out leveling and transformation, help plant oil tea, vegetables, etc., and develop small vegetable gardens and small tea gardens according to local conditions, so as to realize the beautification of villages and courtyards and make the masses profitable.

Widely mobilize and build mechanisms to transform short-term rectification into long-term management and protection

Integrate urban construction, women's federation, youth league committee, sanitation and other departments, carry out centralized actions for environmental improvement, actively call for and organize the masses to participate in the action, let the masses experience the difficulty of environmental improvement and the comfort brought by cleanliness and cleanliness, and let villagers consciously change their thinking and put an end to bad habits. At the same time, actively explore and improve the long-term management and protection mechanism at the village level, formulate a scientific and reasonable evaluation system, and the three-person assessment team selected by the villagers will regularly supervise the environmental sanitation, and the village will publish the red and black list according to the assessment results to ensure that the environmental health situation does not rebound and the environmental management is normalized.

The combination of cleverness and heavy heritage makes rural objects turn into nostalgic carriers

The construction of beautiful villages has never been a large-scale demolition and construction, and the ingenious and exquisite transformation has not only changed the new style and new appearance, but also retained the strong nostalgia. In the whole process of the construction of the beautiful countryside, the bamboo wall grown in the village is used to build a bamboo wall, the pebbles in the river are used to build a retaining wall, and the peasants' wall is cleverly used as a cultural wall, which is beautiful and can also tree new winds and publicize policies; the old stone mills, old water tanks and other common agricultural appliances of the older generation are transformed into the walls and display walls outside the square, which not only play a safety role, but also retain the strong nostalgia; use recycled wooden ploughs, wooden rakes and other agricultural tools that were once used to hang on the wall of the old house on the side of the road. A wall of classic farming culture has been formed. Although these transformations are simple and simple, they are all carefully conceived and carefully designed, which not only put on the "new clothes" for the village, bring comfort to the villagers, but also retain memories for the villagers, so that the villagers can feel the changes of the times while keeping the nostalgia.
