Resolution 24/NQ-TW: Active response to climate change, improvement of natural resource management and environmental protection

2013PolicyAdaptationMore details
Sectors: Economy-wide, Transport
This resolution is intended to further enhance the mainstreaming of climate change and sustainable development in Vietnam, in response to what the government sees as an insufficiently rapid and serious response to previous action plans and legislation amongst Vietnam's ministries. The resolution promotes the shift towards a model of green growth (see the below Green Growth Strategy). This involves restructuring the economy towards sustainable development. The resolution also seeks to create favorable conditions for businesses to invest in green growth, with the government mandated to establish the legal framework and build specific policies to support business.
Examples:
Resilient infrastructure, Fossil fuel divestment, Net zero growth plan, Sustainable fishing
