Abstract
Our research shows how Vietnam’s Covid-19 policy response has influenced Vietnamese migrant workers and counter-trafficking
work, particularly in border areas. Vietnam is a major labour exporter and is in the top ten countries that receive international
remittances. Examining the impact of the pandemic means taking into account the livelihoods and wellbeing of hundreds of
thousands of overseas migrant workers. This briefing considers the impact of Vietnam’s policy response to the Covid-19 pandemic on such workers and supports adjustments in policy planning.
