The impact of climate change on the livelihoods of people in the Mekong Delta, Vietnam Authors

Year: 2025

Type: conference-paper

Abstract: Climate change is having severe impacts on the livelihoods of people in the Mekong Delta, Vietnam, a key region for agriculture and aquaculture. Extreme weather events such as droughts, floods, and saltwater intrusion have reduced agricultural productivity, water quality degradation, and threats to food security. These challenges not only affect household incomes but also undermine community stability. To ensure sustainable development, adaptive solutions must be implemented, including improving irrigation systems, developing salt-tolerant crop varieties, and enhancing disaster resilience infrastructure. Additionally, targeted support for vulnerable groups is essential to mitigate adverse effects and strengthen climate resilience.
