Abstract: Gender equality which is one of the fundamental human rights has become a global issue., In ethnic minority areas, in addition to legal frameworks, the implementation of gender equality is also influenced and shaped by customary laws. Each ethnic minority group has its own customary laws, reflecting the unique identity and characteristics of that group. To promote progressive customary practices and gradually eliminate outdated conventions, contributing significantly to the realization of gender equality in the region, Ha Giang Province has, in recent years, incorporated customary laws into the promotion of gender equality. The province has also gradually integrated positive elements of customary laws into educational efforts to raise awareness about gender equality in schools. This article identifies customary laws related to gender equality among ethnic minorities in Ha Giang Province and, based on this foundation, analyzes the application of these customary laws in gender equality education in schools across the province.
