National Consultan Scoping Research on Climate Change Adaptation and Disaster Risk Reduction

Vietnam is a focus country in Oxfam’s global GROW campaign, of which a major component relates to food and climate justice (FCJ). One of the key campaign objectives in 2014-15 is to build the resilience of people whose right to food is threatened by climate change. Within this objective are several strands of ongoing Oxfam campaigning on the right to food, national and regional climate change adaptation strategies, and climate practices of the food and beverage industry (“Behind the Brands”). Within the global campaign, Vietnam has selected to focus on FCJ Sub-objective 1b: “By 2015, at least 4 countries will adopt new or strengthen the implementation of existing national adaptation plans that support small scale food producers, and particularly women, in a warming world”.
Oxfam recognizes that national-level climate change adaptation (CCA) responses are key to implementing, replicating, and mainstreaming good practices.
Oxfam seeks to engage a Vietnamese national consultant for 40 days of effort from July-October 2014 to contribute to the regional CCA-DRR process. For detailed information of the post, please see the attached ToR.
