Dear student,

The word 'their' is a plural pronoun and is used to refer to the plural subjects.

For example: People are aware of their rights and responsibilities.

In the given sentence, the subject is 'people' which is plural. The rights &responsibilities refer to the 'people' , hence we use 'their'.

Hope this answers your query.

Best wishes!
