Chapter 4 Summary

Chapter 4 analyzed a number of factors affecting the role of Binh Phuoc Provincial Information Center in implementing children's rights. The province's policies on children's rights, information centers and the role of information centers in implementing children's rights as well as the local economic, cultural and social development conditions have an impact on the role of Binh Phuoc Provincial Information Center in implementing children's rights in the locality. Characteristics of media agencies with the principles, purposes and organizational structure of information centers; types of media, time of communication; views of the governing agency greatly affect the communication process on children's rights. Socio-demographic characteristics; awareness, attitude, working behavior; support of media agencies and the attention and facilitation of relevant groups and individuals have a not too great impact on the attention of communication staff on communication work on children's rights.

In the coming time, the roles of the Center for Child Rights in implementing children's rights will progress better, creating many models of awareness, attitudes and behaviors to properly implement children's rights, although there are still differences between the roles.

Based on the current situation, influencing factors, changing trends in roles and some issues raised with the role of the Binh Phuoc Provincial Information and Communications Agency in implementing children's rights, the author of the thesis has proposed a system of solutions for the Information and Communications Agency, for communication staff, for leadership and management agencies, for the adult public and the child public.

CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATIONS

CONCLUDE

The thesis has combined the approach of the sociology of mass media (Roman Jakobson's cyclical communication model theory), the social constructivism of Peter L. Berger, the mediation theory of the collective role of R. Merton and the approach to the role of mass media based on children's rights, to analyze the current situation and factors affecting the role of mass media in Binh Phuoc province in implementing children's rights at the local level today. Below are some main research results of the thesis:

1. Communication to promote the implementation of children's rights has been paid attention to by agencies and types of mass media in Binh Phuoc province, contributing to bringing the Party's guidelines, policies and laws of the State on children's rights into life, mobilizing and gathering social resources to participate in solving children's issues. However, it has not really met the requirements of child protection, care and education. Children's issues have not become one of the important contents of mass media in Binh Phuoc province, often having to take a back seat to political, economic and other urgent issues. Children's rights have not been mentioned directly and clearly in mass media, but are often expressed under related concepts.

2. The role of the Binh Phuoc Provincial Information Center in implementing children's rights currently has a negligible difference between the actual role; in the opinions of media officers and the opinions and expectations of the public. The Information Center has relatively fully performed the five roles in implementing children's rights. However, there are still many limitations in terms of content and form, but it has been received and evaluated quite positively by the public, basically satisfying the public's information needs and being applied by the public in practice. However, there is still a relatively large difference between each agency, type of Information Center and between the roles. That is also the point that the Information Center agencies in Binh Phuoc need to consider and continue to adjust.

The role of advocacy, encouragement and the role of information, propaganda and education on the implementation of children's rights are best implemented; then the role of entertainment for children and the role of monitoring the implementation of children's rights; the most limited role is the role of forming and expressing public opinion. Binh Phuoc Radio and Television Station performs the best roles in the implementation of children's rights; second is Binh Phuoc Newspaper; third is Bu Gia Map District Radio; then Dong Phu District Radio, Dong Xoai Town; limited

especially Bu Dang District Radio. Television performs the best roles; second is district radio, print newspapers; third is online newspapers; the most limited is radio.

3. The TTDC has tried to bring to the public a not-so-dismal picture of the situation of children in Binh Phuoc. However, that picture is not comprehensive and does not speak for the voice of local children. The best interests of children and their participation have not been ensured by the TTDC in the province. Children do not have the opportunity to access much information, especially rural children and ethnic minority children.

4. Binh Phuoc Media Center has few violations in reporting and reflecting on children's issues, does not abuse children, does not exploit children's topics to sensationalize and attract readers. However, it avoids many pressing issues in children's lives. The information is monotonous and boring, does not have a strong impact on public opinion, and does not have a strategy for communicating children's rights. It has not really paid attention to participating in perfecting policies on children's rights and serving children's entertainment needs. The communication process is still one-way. Media houses have not complied well with the principles of access to rights and related laws. Training and fostering communication skills on children have not received due attention. Awareness of children's rights among media staff and the public is still limited. The implementation of children's rights is still a long-term process, full of difficulties and challenges.

5. Compare experimental results with research hypotheses:

The first hypothesis has been verified. Binh Phuoc Provincial People's Committee has indeed played an important role in implementing children's rights and has performed relatively well the five roles (information, propaganda, education; forming and guiding public opinion; mobilizing and encouraging the implementation of children's rights; monitoring the implementation of children's rights and serving children's entertainment needs). However, the level of implementation of the roles has significant differences. The role of mobilizing and encouraging and the role of informing, propagating, and educating the implementation of children's rights have been performed best; then the role of entertaining children; then the role of monitoring the implementation of children's rights; the role of forming and expressing public opinion has been the most limited.

The second hypothesis was tested. The characteristics of media agencies with their mission, objectives and organizational structure; types of media, timing of media; and the views of the governing agency greatly influence communication activities on children's rights. The characteristics of media officers with their personal characteristics

Social attitudes and perceptions, working attitudes and behaviors; support from media agencies and the attention and facilitation of relevant agencies, organizations and individuals have insignificant impact on this situation.

The third hypothesis has been verified. The province's policies on children's rights, the role of the Center for Social Affairs in implementing children's rights as well as the local economic, cultural and social development conditions have significantly impacted the current status of the role of the Center for Social Affairs in Binh Phuoc province in implementing children's rights.

6. Comparison of experimental results with research theories:

- Roman Jakobson's cyclical communication model only refers to the general public as the recipient of communication messages, never taking into account the specific public group with rights, which is children. Therefore, this communication model needs to analyze and emphasize the child public group with its own requirements, taking into account children's rights for higher communication effectiveness.

- Peter L.Berger's social constructivism theory has shown the extremely important position and role of the mass media in implementing children's rights. This theory shows great practical significance if the mass media creates correct models of awareness, attitudes and behaviors to implement children's rights. The danger is terrible if the mass media creates incorrect models, lacking an approach to children's rights. However, if the public is equipped with knowledge and understanding of children's rights, has qualifications and experience, they can be selective in the reception process. Therefore, improving people's knowledge is extremely necessary, closely linked to communication activities. At the same time, it is necessary to orient the content and political ideology for communication activities as well as equip communication staff with communication skills about children. This theory needs to continue to be applied and verified in other studies.

- R.Merton's theory of collective role average explains the difference and tension in the role of the collective role of the media in implementing children's rights. By extension, we can explain the tension and conflict in the roles of organizations and individuals associated with certain positions.

7. The thesis affirms that the role of the Center for Child Rights is extremely important in the process of implementing children's rights. The Center for Child Rights has the capacity to create models of awareness, attitudes and behaviors to implement children's rights according to the Party's guidelines, policies and laws of the State and CRC. Therefore, it is necessary to strengthen the role of the Center for Child Rights in implementing children's rights.

- Direct the Provincial Youth Union to preside over and coordinate with press agencies and the Journalists Association to establish small reporter clubs at the provincial and district levels. Binh Phuoc Radio and Television Station and District Radio and Television Stations provide technical guidance and communication skills on children to these clubs.

5. For mass media agencies of Binh Phuoc province

- Binh Phuoc Radio and Television needs to include children's rights content in ethnic language programs; increase self-production of entertainment and educational programs for children; move towards having a television and radio channel dedicated to children. Balance the roles in implementing children's rights, pay attention to the roles of monitoring and forming, expressing public opinion on implementing children's rights. Radio newspapers need to increase media products that perform well in these two roles.

- Binh Phuoc Newspaper, both print and online, needs to have a section for children, and move towards building a separate newspaper for children; pay attention to the role of entertainment for children and propaganda for ethnic minorities about children's rights in the photo news.

- District radio and television stations have special sections for children; pay attention to the role of entertainment for children, monitor the implementation of children's rights and form and express public opinion; propagate to the ethnic minority public about children's rights in ethnic language programs. Bu Gia Map district radio station needs to increase the number of news articles; Bu Dang district radio station needs to increase the number and improve the quality of news articles about children.

- The provincial media must closely follow reality and actively communicate about children, not allowing other media channels that do not fully understand the situation to report inaccurate, unoriented news that is not beneficial to children, negatively affecting children and the province's work of protecting, caring for and educating children.

In this thesis, the author has made efforts to research but has not yet verified the impact of the media alone and the media of Binh Phuoc province on the awareness, attitude and behavior of implementing children's rights of the people of Binh Phuoc. In reality, doing this is extremely difficult, because the knowledge and skills of implementing children's rights of the people in the province do not come from just one source but are a complex combination of many sources. The thesis also does not have the conditions to deeply analyze the quality of content and form of each media product about children from the perspective of the press and media; there are no conditions to measure the change in awareness, attitude and behavior of the people before and after accessing information about children's rights from the media. The author of the thesis will continue to research these issues in the future.
