Abstract

Illegal transportation of people across borders (also known briefly as human trafficking) is considered one of the hottest social security issues in the Southeast Asia, negatively affecting Vietnam and some neighboring countries. Over the past decade (2013-2023), Vietnam has made efforts to upgrade and progress in international cooperation with relevant countries in the region on combating human trafficking. Using mainly document research methods, along with synthesizing and analyzing data taken from reports or articles on the same topic in previous articles and primary data from related government agencies, this article examines the current situation, causes, and efforts in international cooperation to prevent human trafficking in certain countries in the Southeast Asia, especially the ones around Vietnam. From the conclusions drawn from the practice and preliminary results of research on these collaborative efforts, the author makes some recommendations for current and future collaborative projects in this field in the region, hoping that the further projects of the same type can bring more positive results, contributing to ensuring social security within Vietnam and in neighboring countries, and at the same time, promoting the effectiveness and expansion of Vietnam's international cooperation with the region in other non-traditional security issues.
