| Title: | Vietnam – Project for Adaption to Climate Change in the Mekong Delta in Ben Tre and Tra Vinh Provinces (AMD) – April 2023 |
| Description: |
Workers assemble coconut fibre brooms in the production facility owned by Mrs. Nguyen Thi Chi: Ms Nguyễn Thị Muội, 39 years old, married with 2 children (front left); Ms Nguyen Thi Luom, 52 years old, married with 2 children (back right); Ms Nguyen Thi Xa Ra, 36 years old, married with 3 children (back left); and, Ms Nguyen Thi Tu Anh, 36 years old, married with 2 children (front right). They are among the 11 women in their community who enjoy stable part-time employment in the facility. Each of them earns some income (on average VND 3 million, or about US$140 per month) and still have time to take care of their families. The Project for Adaptation to Climate Change in the Mekong Delta in the Ben Tre and Tra Vinh Provinces (AMD) strengthened the resilience and adaptive capacity of 54,000 smallholder farmer households by generating sustainable income opportunities and improved rural livelihoods, reaching an estimated 210,000 people. To this end, AMD invests in climate resilient, inclusive, and remunerative value chain opportunities, including coconut, fruits, and aquaculture. |
