World Bank Income Classification:Low IncomeThe World Bank classifies economies for analytical purposes into four income groups: low, lower-middle, upper-middle, and high income. For this purpose it uses gross national income (GNI) per capita data in U.S. dollars, converted from local currency using the World Bank Atlas method, which is applied to smooth exchange rate fluctuations.Least Developed Country:YesSince 1971, the United Nations has recognized LDCs as a category of States that are deemed highly disadvantaged in their development process, for structural, historical and also geographical reasons. Three criteria are used: per capita income, human assets, and economic vulnerability.Gender Inequality Index:0.575GII is a composite metric of gender inequality using three dimensions: reproductive health, empowerment and the labour market. A low GII value indicates low inequality between women and men, and vice-versa.Gender Development Index:0.723GDI measures gender inequalities in achievement in three basic dimensions of human development: health, education, and command over economic resources.

SN Outcome 1 [CF Outcome 2] Climate Change Response, Disaster Resilience and Environmental Sustainability
By 2026, people in Viet Nam, especially those at risk of being left behind, will benefit from and contribute to safer and cleaner environment resulting from Viet Nam’s effective and gender responsive mitigation and adaptation to climate change, disaster risk reduction and resilience building, promotion of circular economy, the provision of clean and renewable energy, and the sustainable management of natural resources.
The outcome was achieved in 2022 through the government approval of important strategies and tools, strengthening partners’s capacity, promoting the collection of sex and age disaggregation data for disaster monitoring and increasing leadership on women in climate change decision-making.
Regarding the approval of policies, in 2022, a more gender responsive National Strategy on Climate Change (2021-2030) (NSCC) was endorsed. The new strategy, for the first time, includes a section on ‘Ensuring social security and gender equality’ as one of its critical tasks and solutions for climate change adaptation. This improvement in gender integration in the NSCC responds to UN Women and partners’ efforts in advocating for more gender-responsive climate change policies in Viet Nam over the last few years. Since 2020, UN Women and partners have provided technical support to the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment (MONRE) to successfully mainstream gender in the Nationally Determined Contribution of Viet Nam to the Paris Agreement (NDC), setting up national commitments on climate change. After the NDC, in 2022, the government developed the new nationwide NSCC to meet its international commitments. To support MONRE on gender mainstreaming in the NSCC, UN Women and GIZ commissioned a gender review of the previous NSCC (2011-2020) in order to identify gaps and provide recommendations for gender mainstreaming. Moreover, consultation with a women-led CSO network on climate change was also organized to understand their concerns and priorities. UN Women and GIZ worked closely with the NCSS drafting team to provide timely inputs and advice during the drafting process.
Additionally, two technical guidelines on gender mainstreaming in disaster management of the country were developed by Viet Nam Disaster Management Authority, with technical support from UN Women. They are: (1) Guidance on gender mainstreaming in the updated Community-based Disaster Risk Management Programme; and (2) Guidance on the development of gender-responsive disaster evacuation plans at the community level. Both guidance documents provide tools and experiential technical assistance for government officials and practices to ensure the vulnerability, needs, and capacity of women and men are fully integrated into all stages of the disaster management plans and evacuation plans.
The work on sex, age, and disability disaggregated data for disaster monitoring has been further promoted in 2022, to inform disaster preparedness and response decision-making with more gender sensitiveness. UN Women provided technical support to Viet Nam Disaster Management Authority to continue collecting of sex, age and disability disaggregated data for disaster monitoring, through rolling out the guideline on the collection of gender statistics , developed in 2021, in more provinces. In 2022, 290 disaster management officials at the provincial, district, and commune-level in the two provinces of Ha Tinh and Quang Tri were trained and then conducted the data collection in their provinces. Collected information will be consolidated and integrated into the Viet Nam Disaster Monitoring System of VNDMA. The guideline was also used by other organizations such as FAO and UNICEF to support the data collection in other provinces. Since early 2022, the collected SADDD in these provinces were used to generate impact-based forecasting of disasters hitting the provinces and guide response actions with gender, age, and disability sensitivity. The collection of SADD data for disaster monitoring has been documented and shared as one of good practices in ASEAN on gender responsive disaster mangement. https://asean.org/book/ensuring-gender-responsive-disaster-risk-reduction-good-practices-from-asean/
Besides, in order to increase the voice and leadership of women in climate change discussion and decision-making, in 2022 UN Women supported Viet Nam Women’s Union to strengthen its institutional capacity to better perform its role in the Steering Committee on Disaster Management. 67 core staff (66 female and 1 male), including presidents or vice-presidents of Women’s Unions of 41 provinces in the northern and central region of Viet Nam participated in trainings on “Gender Analysis and Advocacy in Disaster Risk Management” to strengthen their capacity in raising gender issues in the Committee on Natural Disaster Management. Viet Nam Women’s Union organized a Policy Dialogue on “ Supporting women’s climate-resilient livelihood development and recovery after COVID-19 ”. The event attracted more than 100 women, women-led cooperatives, and women-owned SMEs from all over the country sharing challenges that they are facing in the development of climate-resilient livelihoods and businesses. Government leaders from the Ministry of Trade and Industry, the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development, the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment, the Ministry of Labor, Invalid and Social Affairs, and the Social Policy Bank dialogued with women on government policies and programme to support women’s economic development in the context of climate change. The event was live-streamed on the website of Viet Nam Women’s Union at Livestream chuong trình Ð?i tho?i chính sách "H? tr? ph? n? phát tri?n sinh k? thích ?ng bi?n d?i khí h?u sau ?nh hu?ng d?ch Covid-19" » Báo Ph? N? Vi?t Nam (phunuvietnam.vn)
In 2022, the women led CSO network on gender and climate change enhanced their capacity through the implementation of gender and climate change initiatives, with support from UN Women. As follow-up actions of the ToT training for CSOs organized in 2021, eight CSOs received funding support of around USD1,000 from EmPower and the Blue Water Fund of the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) for the implementation of their initiatives to promote gender equality in climate change in their working areas in Son La, Ha Noi, Da Nang, Nghe An, Thai Binh, Quang Tri, and Ben Tre province. As a result, from January to May 2022, 563 women, and 392 men, of which 9 people with disability and 186 ethnic minority people directly benefited from these initiatives, through learning new knowledge and skills as well as taking action on disaster risk reduction, climate change adaptation and mitigation measures. CSO women leaders are also recognized for their role and contribution to climate change actions by community people and local authority leaders.
These key results will contribute to the achievement of UNCF Outcome 2 that people in Viet Nam, especially those at risk of being left behind, will benefit from and contribute to a safer and cleaner environment. It will support Viet Nam in implementing its commitment to gender equality and climate change under the SDG agenda.
