City Overview
Vinh Yen is the capital of Vinh Phuc Province in the Red River Delta region of northern Viet Nam. It is a successful and rapidly growing industrial satellite city of Ha Noi with strong foreign investment into manufacturing (vehicles, electronics, clothing/textiles and other goods) and a growing role as a logistics hub. The city is playing a major role in reducing poverty through job creation. Vinh Yen City is expanding to engulf surrounding urban and rural areas. However, this growth is straining urban services, especially: waste water management and treatment; water supply; solid waste management; and flooding mitigation. The project will provide recommendations for greening and increasing the resilience of the design and procurement of all the SCDP GC project investments for Vinh Yen city, and develop updated, integrated, resilient city action plans for Vinh Yen city, including an indicator/monitoring framework, GHG inventory and database, biodiversity framework, climate vulnerability assessment, low carbon plan, prioritization and financing plan).
