Tóm tắt

Climate Change (CC) has significant impacts to socio-economic development in Viet Nam and agricultural is one of the most affected sectors. The most impacted provinces are those where economic activities are highly dependent on ecosystem services such as Tuyen Quang. This study applies vulnerability assessment framework proposed by Allison et al (2009) and the unequal weights methodology developed by Iyengar and Sudarshan (1982) to assess climate change vulnerability for agriculture sector in Tuyen Quang province. The results show that, in the 21stcentury, Son Duong and Na Hang districts are highly vulnerable to climate change while Tuyen Quang city is less vulnerable than other districts. This study presents useful results to help local governments and communities to respond to climate change impacts in the future.
