Abstract

The article presents the current situation of protection of human rights in criminal proceedings in Vietnam. The results show that Vietnam has made many reforms in the legal system, especially with the 2013 Constitution and the 2015 Criminal Procedure Code, in order to improve the ability to protect human rights in the stages of investigation, prosecution, trial and judgment enforcement. However, the practice of law enforcement still has many inadequacies. The article also proposes a number of solutions to improve the effectiveness of human rights protection in criminal proceedings in Vietnam today.

Keywords: Human rights, procedural activities, criminal proceedings.
