Global Vietnam: Gender, Labour and Migration

1 October 2022

Global Vietnam is a two-week in-country intensive course that offers students the opportunity to experience first-hand the imbricated issues of gender, labour and migration in contemporary Vietnam from a broad cultural studies perspective. The course is based in Hanoi, the nation’s capital, and in addition to offering basic language and cultural awareness instruction (i.e., survival language and etiquette), draws upon expertise from ANU staff, local academics, governmental officials and NGO staff. The broad themes of the course will be engaged through the study of specific topics (e.g., factory work; marriage migration; human trafficking; development and sustainability; youth, gender identity and social mobility/displacement) from multiple disciplinary perspectives (e.g., cultural studies, sociology, gender studies, anthropology, the fine arts).
