Masalli — The Southern Regional Center of the Ombudsman (Human Rights Commissioner) of the Republic of Azerbaijan held an educational event on the topic “Legal Education of Youth and Increasing Their Knowledge in Human Rights,” with the participation of volunteers from the Masalli Regional “ASAN Service” Center.

The event aimed to enhance legal literacy among young people and deepen their understanding of fundamental human rights, in line with the Ombudsman Institution’s continued commitment to promoting a culture of rights awareness among youth across the country’s regions.

Participants were briefed on key principles of human rights protection, the role and mandate of the Ombudsman Institution, and the mechanisms available to citizens — particularly young people — for safeguarding their rights and seeking legal recourse when needed.

Such initiatives form part of the Ombudsman Institution’s broader efforts to engage with youth at the grassroots level, encourage active civic participation, and build a generation that is both legally informed and socially responsible.

The event reflects the continued collaboration between the Ombudsman’s regional structures and local institutions, such as the ASAN Service centers, in extending legal education and human rights awareness initiatives to communities across Azerbaijan’s regions.
