Climate Adaptation and Resilience in Thua Thien Hue Province Vietnam (CARe Hue)

Climate Adaptation and Resilience in Thua Thien Hue Province Vietnam (CARe Hue)

The Province of Thua Thien Hue in Vietnam faces significant exposure to climate change, including storms, floods, droughts, coastal and river erosion, and soil and water salinisation. The agriculture-dependent population is particularly at risk, with climate change adversely affecting crop yields, leading to food insecurity and economic losses. Despite governmental efforts to adapt, barriers such as insufficient public finance, limited coordination, inadequate integration of climate risks into development plans, and restricted access to climate-resilient agricultural practices and finance hinder effective climate-resilient development in the province.

To address these challenges, the project will enhance climate resilience for local communities and ecosystems. The project improves the early warning system in the region, enhances climate-resilient planning, and sustainably manages more than 100,000 hectares of agricultural and forested land. It will invest in ecosystem-based adaptation and build climate-resilient value chains in the agriculture sector. 

With a strong participatory approach, the project integrates climate adaptation into socio-economic development plans and establishes an effective monitoring and evaluation system. It emphasises gender inclusivity, ensuring women's participation and addressing gender disparities in climate adaptation efforts. The project's comprehensive strategy not only aims to reduce the vulnerability of the province but also serves as a model for climate change adaptation across Vietnam.
