Presentation, Recording
· Tools for adaptation decision making should help promote sound risk management (within buffers/margins) not perfectly predict the future
· One size does not fit all. Farmer level tools are generally not helpful to national level planners and vice versa
· Need to be specific: what aspect of climate change are you trying to reflect at what scale
· Need to realistic in expectations: Avoid over-confidence in data. Try to create tools that planners can use to do their job better
· Build on government systems: Stand-alone external processes most likely will not be taken up- even if they are “better” and “more accurate”
· Recognise that everyone is learning: Tools need to evolve over time, and be able to integrate improvements in climate data & methodologies.
· Public expenditure reviews can help make climate change tangible to government

Integration of adaptation into agriculture sector planning and budgeting in Viet Nam
1. SUPPORTING THE INTEGRATION
OF ADAPTATION INTO
AGRICULTURE SECTOR
PLANNING AND BUDGETING IN
VIET NAM
Jenty Kirsch-Wood
UNDP Viet Nam, September 2017
2. Outline
■ Integration is easier said than done- and this is a work in progress
■ UNDP’s role is often to make climate change knowledge usable
■ Some examples from Viet Nam
■ Why are finance reviews important?
■ Key learning and challenges in Viet Nam
■ Future Directions
4. So be clear about aim and audience of integration:
5. UNDP’s role is often to help make climate
change knowledge usable
Climate data in a format non-specialists can understand
Easy to use tools (ie: don’t say “do a vulnerability analysis”
or “assess cost benefits” and not give a means to do that
easily)
Tools that are tailored to the regular planning cycle (do
not expect to change the whole planning cycle)
Tools that use government’s own data
Capacity building on how to use those tools
6. Example Viet Nam: Build on existing planning systems
Maps, tools and manual specifically
tailored to take into account climate
vulnerability at each step of the
government agriculture planning
cycle
Working on specific policy
recommendations on how to
upgrade systems and provide low-
regret option to take into account
current climate change science

8. Example Viet Nam: Build on what exists
■ Disaster risk reduction tools and community mechanisms are often a very useful
tool to build-in adaptation analysis. In Viet Nam we have built climate change into
existing disaster participatory appraisal processes at commune level
■ Spend time finding the right interlocutors: Partnerships with Ministries of Agriculture,
Planning and Finance are essential.
■ Make data updatable: Otherwise after a year it will sit on a shelf.
9. Why are finance reviews important?
■ Help show how some current
investments (ie: in DRR and dyke
management) are climate change
relevant
■ Can raise debate on funding across
ministries/ science versus hard-ware
etc
■ Will be increasingly required by key
international funding sources such as
GCF (to show Government co-finance)
10. Our CPEIR learning curve
With each phase Government
interest is growing and quality
is improving. Couldn’t have
done a perfect study first time
11. Methodology considerations:
– Designing the scope of analysis (e.g., at what stage is a project/program tagged in the
budget process, which programs to be tagged, allocations only?)
– Methodology for identifying climate change and/or green growth activities (e.g. how to
cope with partial CC projects, or co-ben) ;
– Level of granularity
– Classifying expenditures (e.g., flexible approach or through a detailed typology of type of
intervention)
– Clear reporting processes
