According to the ILO’s investigative report, in 2006, Vietnam had about 930,000 children taking part in economic activities and there was an increasing trend of child labourers being forced to work hard.

The 4-year project aims to help some 5,000 child labourers get out of the bad working environment.

The project will help about 200 child victims of trafficking rehabilitate and re-integrate themselves into society.

The project will be carried out in 5 provinces and cities, including Hanoi, Lao Cai, Ninh Binh, Quang Nam and Dong Nai.

To benefit from the project, children working in a bad environment can call 18001567-a hotline of the MOLISA’s Child Care and Protection Department for assistance and timely intervention by appropriate authorities.
