Support to Viet Nam for the Implementation of the Paris Agreement II
With its long coastline and deltas, Viet Nam is extremely vulnerable to climate change and is thus pursuing ambitious climate policy. At the UN climate conference in 2021, the country announced that it would become climate-neutral by 2050 with international support. The project supports the vietnamese Ministry of the Environment in implementing the National Climate Strategy, the first cross-sectoral strategy to achieve a net-zero emissions target by 2050, as well as in implementing the National Biodiversity Action Plan. The Ministry of Transport will receive support on decarbonizing freight transport while the Ministry of Agriculture alongside two provinces will receive support to expand ecosystem-based adaptation measures. The interdisciplinary approach to project implementation with a focus on ambitious climate policy can positively encourage other countries in the region to pursue their own climate goals.

- A concept developed for further e-mobility development in Viet Nam directly influenced the launch of the Resource Mobilization Plan for the Just Energy Transition Partnership in Viet Nam in November 2023.
- Project support enabled the Vietnamese delegation at COP28 to effectively communicate the country's climate change efforts. This included among others a successful side event on "Nature-based solutions: achieving climate targets and sustainable agriculture in Viet Nam" held on December 10, 2023, in Dubai.
- The knowledge exchange and cooperation among the IKI community in Viet Nam was fostered through six IKI implementer meetings in Hanoi on Biodiversity, NDC 3.0, Climate Finance, Energy Transition, Carbon Markets and Climate Adaptation.
