Purpose Of Activity/Assignment
Review of the implementation of the environment and climate change pillars focusing on children, women and vulnerable groups in Socio-Economic Development Plans (SEDP) for the period 2021-2025 for the three provinces of Soc Trang, Bac Lieu and Ca Mau with recommendations to make annual and five-year SEDPs of these provinces more child-friendly, gender-responsive and climate resilient.
Scope Of Work
Viet Nam has, over the past 30 years, achieved remarkable socio-economic progress. Reforms have stimulated an economic transformation that has propelled the country into lower-middle-income status. The UN Common Country Analysis confirmed strong progress across several Sustainable Development Goals, including the lifting of over 45 million people out of poverty between 2002 and 2018. However, too many people have been left out of this rapid ascent into a modern, connected economy, while inequalities have persisted and in some parts of the population deepened - requiring specific, sustained investments to better deliver on the 2030 Sustainable Development Goals according to Viet Nam’s 2020 National Report.
Over the last decades the Government of Viet Nam has demonstrated its commitments to child rights and children’s wellbeing. Specifically, priorities for children are expressed through the 13th Party Congress’s Political Document, within the 2021-2030 Socio-economic Development Strategy, the 2021-2025 Socio-Economic Development Plan and three national targeted programs – on sustainable poverty reduction, new rural construction and economic development for ethnic minority and mountainous areas – and the National Action Program on Children for the period 2021-2030.
However, multidimensional child poverty remains significant (10.7 per cent), with disparities between rural and urban areas (13 versus 6 per cent) and among ethnic minorities (33.1 versus 6.3 per cent for the majority of Kinh and Hoa). In addition, Viet Nam is one of the countries that are most vulnerable to the effects of climate change, i.e., ranked sixth by the Global Climate Risk Index in 2020. Children living in the poorest households are significantly more affected by the consequences of extreme weather events. Recent research indicated that 50 per cent of studied children living in the poorest households in Viet Nam had experienced at least one extreme weather event that affected the household economy compared to 17 per cent of the least poor households.
The aforementioned gaps, along with those that have emerged in recent years due to environmental degradation, natural disasters, and extreme weather events related to climate change—such as droughts, floods, and storms—will significantly impact the comprehensive development of children in Viet Nam. Therefore, Viet Nam must accelerate its efforts to address both unfinished and emerging agendas related to children's rights to ensure that no child is left behind. This requires timely and green investments in human capital, such as education and skills development, to equip the younger generation to adapt to the evolving job market and the changing economic, social, and environmental contexts.
The project "Child-Friendly Policies and Plans for the Period 2023-2026" between the Ministry of Planning and Investment (MPI) and UNICEF is expected to enhance the institutional capacity of the Ministry of Planning and Investment in policy formulation and implementation based on evidence. This aims to better fulfill children's rights, particularly in planning, resource mobilization, implementation, and monitoring of socio-economic development plans, the 2030 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), and national targeted programmes (NTPs). The Department of Science, Education, Natural Resources, and Environment (DSENRE) of MPI is the national focal point for implementing sustainable development and green growth. It is also responsible for formulating and monitoring socio-economic development plans (SEDPs) and medium-term public investment plans in the fields of education and training, science and technology, and natural resources and environment. Under this project, DSENRE/MPI in conjunction with UNICEF designed activities with a focus on promoting children's rights in the implementation of sustainable development goals, green growth, environmental protection, and climate change response.
Therefore, within the project framework, DESENRE/MPI and UNICEF plan to recruit national consultants to support the DSENRE/MPI in conducting a midterm review of the environmental pillar in the annual and five-year socio-economic development plans (2021-2025) for three provinces: Soc Trang, Bac Lieu, and Ca Mau with a focus on children, women and vulnerable populations. This assignment has an overall objective of taking stock of the provincial plan implementation and formulating specific recommendations for the three provinces. It aims to better address children’s and vulnerable population groups’ well-being in the implementation of the environmental protection and climate change response pillars in their current plans, then ultimately informing the development of upcoming provincial 2026-2030 SEDPs with a focus on children.
Specific Objectives Include
Consultation with relevant stakeholders who were involved in the implementation of these development plans may take the form of workshops and interviews with relevant individuals, agencies, and local authorities. In each province, 1-2 case studies will be developed to illustrate how climate changes and extreme weather events suffered by children, women’s and other vulnerable groups were addressed in the provincial 5-year SEDPs and annual plans, and in the implementation results, and how the SEDP could be strengthened to improve their well-being across multiple dimensions.
The Mid-term Review Will Answer The Following Key Questions
