Key messages
- The Climate-Smart Village (CSV) model showcases rewarding outcomes for the agricultural sector of Vietnam, such as better farm productivity, improved climate resilience, and reduced greenhouse gas emissions.
- The New Rural Development Program or Nông Thôn Mới (NTM) is a national target program of Vietnam that has enabled 57% of rural communes to achieve the NTM status, which aims to raise the socio-economic standard of living of small communities while facilitating agricultural development.
- Agricultural development is threatened by the impacts of climate change, which carries high risk for an agriculture-dependent country like Vietnam.
- The CSV model1 can be applied in the NTM to help the communities under this program achieve “advanced” and “demonstration” status based on 19 criteria.
- Clear operational guidelines should be drafted to successfully integrate the CSV model into the NTM, alongside context-specific financial channels and monitoring and evaluation systems.
