SET in the Mekong Delta

The Mekong Delta, Vietnam’s agricultural heartland, faces mounting challenges from climate change, environmental degradation, and resource scarcity. This book explores how socio-ecological transformation and circular economy principles offer essential pathways toward sustainable development in the region. By presenting interdisciplinary research, practical case studies, and policy insights, the volume showcases models of circular agriculture, renewable energy use, waste management, and community-driven innovation. It provides a comprehensive framework for transforming local economies while enhancing climate resilience, environmental protection, and livelihoods.

This edited volume is published as a part of RLS Hanoi's partnership with the Institute of Policy and Management at VNU-University of Social Sciences and Humanities in Hanoi. Presented in Vietnamese, each article includes a brief English abstract, serving as a vital resource to support wider engagement among policymakers, researchers, development practitioners, those dedicated to fostering a green and inclusive future for the Mekong Delta, and those in similar regions facing comparable challenges.
