[Spmwg] NEW CARE in Vietnam publication on Climate Responsive Social Protection

[Coulier, Miguel]

Dear colleagues, dear friends,

In recent years, the importance of social protection, climate change adaptation and disaster risk reduction has risen in prominence both internationally and in Vietnam. The common goal of these three disciplines is to support resilience against shocks and stresses amongst vulnerable people. Integrating the three disciplines in policy, planning and programming presents huge opportunities for multiplying resilience. For Vietnam, a nation where development is jeopardised by climate change and disasters, and where inequality prevents households most at risk from climate change from accessing resources for adaptation, the question is whether resilience can be fostered at all without an integrated approach.

"Rethinking Resilience: Social Protection in the context of Climate Change in Vietnam" offers an outline of the concept of climate responsive social protection and presents the rationale and recommendations for further development of this approach in Vietnam. This rationale is supported by case studies and examples from Vietnam and around the world. This publication is the 2nd Issue in our recently launched 'Learning Series', short publications outlining key issues which CARE in Vietnam is currently tackling, highlights CARE's approaches, and raises questions and recommendations for future action.

Rethinking Resilience can be downloaded in interactive PDF format here: http://careclimatechange.org/tool-kits/care-vietnam-learning-series/

Hope you enjoy it, and please share widely.

Best regards,
