In the education work of the Youth Union, the activities of the reporting team and oral propaganda play an extremely important role, being a two-way information channel between the Union organization and the Youth Union members. Through the activities of the reporting team and propagandists, Marxism-Leninism and Ho Chi Minh's thought are widely disseminated.

At the same time, disseminate, educate, and thoroughly understand the Party's viewpoints and guidelines, the State's policies and laws; Resolutions, Directives, programs, and revolutionary action movements of the Union.

Thereby, orienting the thinking of cadres, union members and youth on important domestic and international current issues; contributing to creating ideological unity and consensus among youth, strengthening confidence and encouraging revolutionary action movements of the union.

At the same time, this is one of the timely activities to combat the plots and tricks of "peaceful evolution" and criticize the wrong and distorted views of hostile forces.

However, in the face of the increasing demands of the information society, oral propaganda work and the activities of reporters at all levels today still clearly reveal limitations: The team is large but not strong, lacking in depth; the method of operation is still heavily one-way from top to bottom, the grasp of information from the grassroots is limited, lacking in timeliness and depth.
