Climate change poses significant challenges to biodiversity, agriculture, water resources, community health, and infrastructure, requiring global efforts to mitigate its impact and adapt to the changes occurring and anticipated.
Vietnam, with its extensive coastline, diverse ecosystems, and significant agricultural sector, is highly vulnerable to the impacts of climate change which is posing substantial threats to the livelihoods, food security, and overall well-being of its rural population.
In response to these challenges, there is a pressing need for effective climate change mitigation and adaptation strategies tailored to the specific context of Vietnam’s rural areas.
Against this backdrop, ICRAF and Thai Nguyen University of Agriculture and Forestry have joined forces to organize a conference focused on climate change mitigation and adaptation science and practices tailored to Vietnam’s rural context. The conference will focus on the following topics: Climate change impacts on rural communities, scientific knowledge and best practices, capacity building and collaboration and community resilience.
