Over 25,000 Vietnamese residents in seven coastal localities are now safeguarded by storm-and flood-resistant homes thanks to a project improving the resilience of vulnerable coastal communities to climate change in Vietnam. The project, which ran from 2017 to 2024, also restored 4,028 ha of mangrove forests and installed early warning systems in 24 high-risk communes. A joint effort between the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) and the Vietnamese Government, it targeted Nam Dinh, Thanh Hoa, Quang Binh, Hue, Quang Nam, Quang Ngai and Ca Mau, known for their high vulnerability to the impacts of climate change.
