Bringing legal aid policy closer to the people in Thanh Hoa

In order to help people understand their right to free legal aid and know how to use this service when encountering legal problems in daily life, contributing to bringing the law closer to the people, especially the weak and vulnerable in society, recently in the communes of Van Xuan, Luong Son (former Thuong Xuan district) and Linh Son (former Lang Chanh district), Thanh Hoa province, a training conference to disseminate knowledge about legal aid took place.

Attending the conference were officials from the Department of Legal Dissemination, Education and Legal Aid, Ministry of Justice ; representatives of the State Legal Aid Center of Thanh Hoa province, reporters, local government leaders, village elders, village chiefs, prestigious people in the community and a large number of people.

At the conference, the reporters clearly presented the basic knowledge of legal aid so that people could clearly grasp the regulations related to legal aid activities, subjects of legal aid, rights and obligations of legal aid recipients, how to submit documents when requesting legal aid... and at the same time emphasized that the law always prioritizes protecting the vulnerable in society. In particular, the exchange of real-life situations in areas such as land, labor relations, administrative complaints... received enthusiastic responses from the people. The atmosphere of the training session was lively and open, demonstrating the spirit of learning and the desire to learn about the law of the people.

The training not only helps people “understand the law to protect themselves” but also arouses the spirit of proactively learning and applying the law in life. Many people expressed joy and peace of mind knowing that in difficult situations, they can receive free, legal and humane legal assistance. After the training, people became more confident, open and had more faith in the role of the law in community life.

For the reporters, the training session was also an opportunity to listen to and record the practical difficulties and obstacles that people encounter when exercising their legal rights, thereby providing more basis for consulting, perfecting communication work and improving the quality of legal aid activities at the grassroots level. The real-life situations raised by the people helped the reporters add more perspectives on life, linking legal theory with social practice, so that the dissemination and guidance of the law becomes more vivid, easier to understand and practical.

More importantly, each training session is not only an opportunity to convey legal knowledge but also a journey to "sow the seeds of legal belief", helping people clearly feel that the law is always present in life, always protecting and accompanying them. The training session ended in an exciting atmosphere, leaving many good impressions. People better understood their right to legal aid, mastered the process of accessing services, from contacting the State Legal Aid Center, preparing and submitting application documents, to how to coordinate when assigned people to provide assistance.
