    Background

    Since 2009, ABA ROLI has worked to advance the rule of law in Vietnam, first when it partnered with Vietnamese government institutions, law schools, and lawyers’ associations on programs to improve legal education and support institutional development of the legal profession with funding support from the U.S. Department of State. Since that time, ABA ROLI’s programming in the country has expanded to address topics as diverse as human trafficking, money laundering, and criminal trial advocacy.

    Our work in Vietnam

    Strengthening skills of judges and lawyers in adversarial criminal trials

    With support from the U.S. Department of State Bureau of International Narcotics and Law Enforcement Agency (INL), ABA ROLI is conducting a Criminal Trial Advocacy Program with the aim of providing Vietnamese judges, prosecutors, criminal defense attorneys, and law students an opportunity to develop the knowledge and skills they need to implement the adversarial elements included in Vietnam’s 2015 Criminal Procedure Code (CPC), which went into effect in January 2018.
