The State of Gender Equality and Climate Change in Viet Nam

Share this resource

This report analyzes gendered impacts in key climate change adaptation and mitigation sectors included in Viet Nam’s updated NDC, such as agriculture, renewable energy, and water and waste management. The report identifies areas of progress and concern. Among the key challenges raised by policymakers are the missing links between gender equality and climate change priorities, including gender data deficiency. These gaps prevent policies from adequately addressing gendered vulnerabilities.

Prepared by the Institute of Strategy and Policy on Natural Resources and Environment, the UN Environment Programme, and UN Women, this report aims to help fill some of these gaps by sharing information on the status of gender mainstreaming, and planning out further policy work, capacity building, coordination, and research

The study was carried out with the financial support of “EmPower – Women for Climate Resilient Societies”, a project jointly implemented by the UN Environment Programme (UNEP) and UN Women, with funding from the Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency (SIDA).
