Abstract:
Although the Vietnamese Government welcomes pro-poor RES/PES, implementation on the ground is challenging due to: (i) overlaps in organizational structures and functions among different ministries; (ii) critical gaps in the supportive laws, regulations and policies needed for local communities to participate in PES contracts; and, (iii) limited
understanding of PES and pro-poor PES among decision-makers, the private sector and communities (Pham et al., 2008). Progress requires a multi-sector approach and further action research to support policy development and training in PES at the local level.
This is where RUPES II can complement the national efforts.
