For more than 30 years she had been the greatest Vietnamist in Poland, having achieved expert status internationally. In both intellectual and practical terms, Dr Halik was a bridge-builder between the Polish government and academic institutions on one side, and the Vietnamese community in Poland on the other. She was also the most important expert and interpreter working for the Polish Ministry of Justice, government agencies, border guards, and many other offices and non-governmental organisations, e.g. the Helsinki Foundation for Human Rights and the Council for Overseas Vietnamese. 10aTeresa Halik1 aNowicka, Ewa  uhttp://ceemr.uw.edu.pl/sites/default/files/CEEMR_Vol_4_No_1_Nowicka_In_Commemoration_of_Dr_Teresa_Halik.pdf
