| Sumario: | Vietnam is strongly committed to achieving net zero by 2050. The country aims to reduce its greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 9% by 2030 using only domestic resources, and by up to 43.5% with international support. At the same time, the Government of Vietnam is prioritizing food security as a key pillar of national policies on socioeconomic development and sustainability. As the national food hub, the Mekong Delta plays a vital role in Vietnam’s national economy and food security. It produces half of the country’s rice, 70% of its aquaculture, and one-third of its GDP. Accordingly, the government and donors have prioritized the region for support to become a national model for innovative, climate smart, and transformative agriculture systems.
