A lecture was held for students completing an internship at the Office of the Human Rights Commissioner in the Republic of Tatarstan
Legal education work continues for students completing internships at the Office of the Commissioner for Human Rights in the Republic of Tatarstan.
Today, I met with law students from the Russian State University of Justice, Kazan Innovation University, and Kazan Federal University. I spoke to them about the activities of the Office of the Commissioner, how it handles citizen inquiries, and the communication channels through which it is conducted.
I also focused on our work in the area of legal education. We are currently implementing a number of projects:
- A Legal Knowledge School for students of the University of the Third Age,
- A Legal Knowledge School for parents of children with disabilities,
- A Legal Knowledge School for conscripts and their parents,
- Legal Aid Days for the public,
- Legal Aid Days for foreign students,
- Legal Aid Days for military personnel undergoing treatment,
- Legal Aid Days for convicts.
In addition, we are developing legal education materials. These include a course of legal education lectures as part of the Decade of Disabled Persons, as well as video interviews with former convicts who have completed the rehabilitation program as part of the "Rehabilitation Squads" and successfully overcome addiction. In addition, various reference books and informational materials are being developed to help citizens better understand their rights.
The students thanked us for the meeting, actively asked questions, and expressed interest in the practical aspects of our work. It's gratifying to see students' interest in human rights work!
