Jungpflanzenversorgung für Küstenwälder

Vietnam is highly vulnerable to the impacts of climate change, in particular in its coastal areas where tropical storms cause landfall. Therefore, the Government of Vietnam borrowed USD 150 million from the International Development Association of the World Bank to improve coastal forest management in eight provinces of Vietnam’s North Central Coast. The project’s objective was to build “how to” knowledge for effectively augmenting seedling supply of key species for restoring coastal forest areas. This included identifying capacity gaps and addressing them through trainings for nursery owners and provincial authorities. UNIQUE was selected due to its successful implementation of nurseries and coastal reforestation in the same region and its extensive knowledge of stakeholders, legislation, species, and site conditions.
