The CGIAR Initiative on Asian Mega-Deltas (AMD) aims to create resilient, inclusive and productive deltas that maintain socio-ecological integrity, adapt to climatic and other stressors, and support human prosperity and wellbeing. Hear more from Mr. Le Thanh Tung Deputy Director for South Department of Crop Production of the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development (MARD), Vietnam about the challenges that this Initiative aims to address by mainstreaming approaches such as the Climate-Smart Maps and Adaptation Plans (CS-MAP) in agriculture policy frameworks and tools like RiceMo (https://ghgmitigation.irri.org/knowledge-products/mrv-toolbox/ricemo), among other interventions.  MARD has selected the development and implementation of CS-MAP as a success story for innovations to transform and build resilience of the agriculture sector to report at COP26 in November 2021.
