The event, co-organised by the International Organisation for Migration and the Consular Department under the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, focused on the relationship between migration and development, particularly in Vietnam and Asia .
It also talked about the impacts of migration on development, especially on overseas remittance and knowledge transfer and challenges in income and migration database management for policy making.
