Persistent Inequality and COVID-19 Holding Back Young People in Vietnam

Evidence from the Listening to Young Lives at Work Covid-19 Phone Survey

Abstract

This policy brief looks at the impact of COVID-19 on the lives of young people in Vietnam, particularly those from poor households, remote and rural communities, and ethnic minority groups.

While Vietnam was successful in containing the spread of COVID-19 during 2020, the recent surge in infection rates and new restrictions are likely to have significant and worsening economic and social impacts for young people.鈥�
