CC policies for agriculture and ruraldevelopment  Action Plan Framework for Adaptation to Climate Change (CC) in the Agriculture and Rural Development Sector  Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development (MARD) Action Plan in Response to CC in the Agriculture & Rural Development Sector during the Period 2011-2015 with a Vision to 2050  Decision on GHG Emission Reductions in the ARD Sector  Office for the Coordination of Climate Change (OCCA)

Challenges with policy formulation andimplementation  Gap in knowledge on local level climate impacts  Competing development objectives - meeting rice production targets in light of predicted climate change impacts  Focus on “hard” adaptation measures (dikes, levees and hydraulic structures) – insufficient attention to “soft” adaptation measures  Forging partnerships with national research institutes, international expertise and donor agencies to improve climate change related policy frameworks

IFAD support - CC policy enhancement &implementation in ARD sector  CC issues fully integrated into a $100 mil programme of work  Support to the Office for the Coordination of Climate Change (OCCA) – policy enhancement  Integration of adaptation to climate change into the Provincial Socio-Economic Development Plan (SEDP)  Adaptation to CC in the Mekong Delta – funded through the IFAD Adaptation for Smallholder Agriculture Programme (ASAP)  2012 – 2017 Learning Phase – engagement of key partners and knowledge management
