Summary/Abstract: In recent years, two major issues that humanity has faced are forced migration and climate change. Climate change affects to human life and, if not mitigated, will continue to lead to global warming, desertification, the rise of sea levels, the disappearance of islands and the increased frequency and scale of climate-related natural disasters. In addition, many Vietnamese workers overseas have had negative effects as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic and the war between Ukraine and Russia. Given the situation, Vietnam has been adopting laws and several programs to protect the rights of woman migrant workers overseas and to provide secure employment prospects for workers who return home. However, Vietnam hasn’t joined the International Convention on the Protection of the Rights of All Migrant Workers and Members of Their Families (ICRMW); this convention contains several considerations for migrant workers. This paper analyses and describe the advantages and challenges of Vietnam as a member of ICRMW Convention.
