This study assesses the change in knowledge, attitude, and practice of Vietnamese youth regarding marine plastic waste pollution. Through a comprehensive analysis of survey data collected from 600 Vietnamese students before and after environmental education interventions, this research evaluates the effectiveness of educational initiatives in fostering awareness and behavioral changes among students. The findings reveal notable improvements in students' knowledge and attitudes towards marine plastic waste pollution following educational interventions. Moreover, positive shifts in behavioral practices, such as reduced plastic usage and increased recycling efforts, are observed the most among the primary students. These results underscore the importance of targeted educational interventions in promoting sustainable behaviors and combating marine plastic pollution.enjournal-article
