- Abstract: The aim of this study is to investigate the characteristics of vulnerable households regarding their access to local government support during COVID-19 and assess how this support impacts their choices of livelihood strategies in Central Vietnam. Survey data were collected from 499 family businesses and farming households across the region’s four provinces, and a propensity score matching technique was performed to examine the impacts. The results indicate that the age of the household head, poverty status, membership in agricultural cooperatives, and ownership of vegetable land all have a significant relationship with access to government support. In comparison to matched non-recipients, supported households markedly reduced their engagement in livelihood diversification, cultivation, and forest-based activities while simultaneously increasing their involvement in business. The access to government support significantly reshaped livelihood strategies among households. The findings from the study contribute to the literature on government social protection in response to COVID-19, specifically designing and implementing interventions to assist vulnerable households in developing countries like Vietnam.
