Description: Thua Thien Hue Province in Vietnam is highly exposed to climate change, including storms, floods, droughts, coastal and river erosion, and soil and water salinization. The population dependent on agriculture is particularly at risk, with climate change negatively affecting crop yields, leading to food insecurity and economic losses. Despite the government’s adaptation efforts, barriers such as insufficient public funds, lack of coordination, inadequate integration of climate risks into development plans, and limited access to climate-resilient agricultural practices and financing are preventing climate-efficient development in the province.
To address these challenges, the project will strengthen the climate resilience of local communities and ecosystems. The project also aims to improve the early warning system in the region, strengthen climate-resilient planning and sustainably manage more than 100,000 hectares of agricultural and forest land. It will invest in ecosystem-based adaptation and build climate-resilient value chains in the agricultural sector.
Through a strong participatory approach, the project integrates climate adaptation into socio-economic development plans and establishes an effective monitoring and evaluation system. It emphasizes gender mainstreaming, ensuring women’s participation and addressing gender disparities in climate adaptation efforts. The overall project strategy not only aims to reduce the province’s vulnerability, but also serves as a model for climate change adaptation in Vietnam.
