Students talk about child marriage

After school hours, Bui Thanh Huy, a Muong ethnic (Vo village, Cuoi Ha commune), class 7B, Kim Boi district's Boarding Secondary and High School for Ethnic Minorities, spends time participating in physical education and sports activities with his friends. Huy said that his parents and teachers always advise him not to fall in love and get married early, so he only focuses on studying. After school hours, he participates in sports to improve his health.

Huy said that through the school's extracurricular activities to propagate the harmful effects of child marriage, especially the "Learning about the law on child marriage" contest for students of ethnic minority boarding schools in the province... he found it very interesting and useful, because through it he clearly understood the harmful effects of child marriage to know how to prevent it. He will go back to propagate to his friends and family members about what he learned at school to join hands to push back child marriage.

Similarly, Bui An Khang, a 5th grader at Thuong Bi Primary and Secondary School, spoke fluently about the basic contents related to TH-HNCHT. Khang said that through some subjects, especially flag salutes at school, teachers shared a lot of knowledge about TH-HNCHT with him. Khang emphasized that TH-HNCHT is a violation of the law.

Extracurricular activities and competitions help students improve their legal knowledge on preventing and combating human trafficking.

This is a meaningful activity, helping students raise awareness, sense of law compliance, and take preventive measures to avoid becoming victims of TH-HNCHT while still in school.

Bringing the story of Bui An Khang, a 5th grade student at Thuong Bi Primary and Secondary School, to talk with Mr. Dinh Cong Phung, Deputy Head of the Ethnic Minorities Department of Kim Boi District, Mr. Phung also affirmed that in recent times, the Education Department of Kim Boi District has promoted extracurricular activities in schools, and through the contest, it has helped students practice many life skills, experience and express themselves, contributing to creating a healthy and beneficial learning and training environment.

They themselves can be channels of information and active propagandists to their relatives and friends at school and in the residential areas where they live, creating a ripple effect to the community and society to participate in pushing back the situation of TH&HNCHT”, Mr. Dinh Cong Phung emphasized.

Many practical solutions

Ms. Le Thi Hong, Deputy Head of the Department of Education and Training of Kim Boi district, said that in order to prevent and reduce the situation of TH-HNCHT, the Department of Education and Training of Kim Boi district has implemented many different measures such as: Directing schools based on the actual situation of the locality to actively coordinate to effectively propagate to parents and students about TH-HNCHT prevention; coordinating with the District Health Center and Health Stations to organize extracurricular activities, the topic of "Sex education and adolescent reproductive health care".

In addition, the school strengthens life skills education for students, actively educates and propagates so that students have a correct understanding of the psychology of their age; boldly and frankly includes it in extracurricular activities; Each kindergarten, primary and secondary school has a medical room; primary and secondary schools have a school psychology counseling room to support students, creating a trusted place for students to share their feelings, express their thoughts and feelings of adolescence, puberty, thereby providing orientation and solving difficulties in their psychological changes.

In particular, we must constantly promote and mobilize the combination of education, career orientation, and education streaming right from junior high school. Integrate local education programs to preserve and promote traditional cultural values ​​of ethnic minorities to arouse national pride and suppress harmful foreign cultural flows.

It can be seen that TH-HNCHT has a direct impact on the quality of the population as well as the socio-economic development goals of the locality. Thanks to the promotion of propaganda and the introduction of sex education content into schools, the situation of early marriage in Kim Boi district has changed positively, with no more cases of incestuous marriage.
