This week the TIV Awareness Team has collaborated with the Ministry of Youth and Sports Development to deliver Civic Education, Anti-Corruption, and Right To Information Law information to the over 200 youth volunteers who helped out to deliver the National Games in 2016 hosted by Luganville City.
Transparency International Vanuatu continues to inform schools on the island of Malekula about the Right To Information (RTI) Law.
Today the Transparency International Vanuatu Team continued its awareness program to north west Malekula and visited Unmet College and Brenwei Junior Secondary School.
These were the schools, in the north west area, that took part in the consultation process in 2016 including Unmet community.
Many students will wonder “but how will the RTI Law benefit us?”
The Right To Information Law is able to assist students who are doing their research. Because whatever age category you are you have the right to access accurate information. It will largely help students educational development.
Furthermore, the RTI Law is established to “promote transparency, accountability and national development by empowering and educating the public to understand and act upon their right to information and to increase public participation in governance.”
Overall, this is a law that will fight corruption for the people. This is the ‘The Peoples Law’, and they deserve to know about it. This Transparency International Vanuatu’s current mission – Anywhere. Anytime. We Will Inform The People.
Video Show at Norsup Secondary School, Malekula. They are watching Transparency International Vanuatu’s latest short film titled “The Story Behind Vanuatu’s Right To Information Law”.
