Strategic Mainstreaming of Ecosystem-based Adaptation in Vietnam: Vulnerability Assessment for Ecosystem-based Adaptation – Overall Approach: Vulnerability Assessment for Socio-Ecological Systems
The GIZ project “Strategic Mainstreaming of EbA in Vietnam” is working to promote EbA approaches in Climate Change Adaptation planning across government policy and planning systems. Institutional considerations are thus important.

Thus, as part of its portfolio of activities the project has selected two provinces – Quang Binh and Ha Tinh to demonstrate EbA vulnerability assessments and identify EbA interventions.
