Building forward better: A resilient women and youth centered and digitally enhanced value chain development in Viet Nam This is for the Interim Call for Proposals for 2nd round of UN COVID-19 Response and Recovery Multi-Partner Trust Fund, in coordination with UNRC in Vietnam. The project is developed in collaboration with IFAD. The project aims to rebuild an agricultural value chain in order to serve as a model for wider scaling out. The proposed approach of the project would place rural women and youth as the core target groups by (i) boosting their skills and capacities; (ii) offering COVID-19 safe working conditions and decent revenues and; (iv) most importantly opening a development pathway for women and youth to actively participate into modern and digitized economic activities.

Building the capacity to implement Industry 4.0 in Viet Nam The overall purpose of the intended project is to assist the Government of Viet Nam (GoV) to build the capacity to prepare for Industry 4.0. This will include preparation of the manufacturing sector (micro) as well as its macro and meso level support institutions. Preparation involves the country#s own adoption of Industry 4.0 and its ability to react and act on implementation of Industry 4.0 globally. Suitable manufacturing sectors for capacity building will be identified during the fact-finding mission. Moreover, the intended project purports to identify the new required worker profile and address the need for re-training and re-skilling of workers, as well as provision of relevant training, in identified manufacturing sectors.  The One Strategy Plan 2017 # 2021 indicates that #Viet Nam is currently experiencing a demographic dividend, with twice as many people of working age than dependents. This provides a large supply of labour for economic development. With a gradual shift from exports of raw agricultural products (such as rice, coffee, pepper and seafood) and labour-intensive manufacturing (in clothing and footwear) to increasingly diversified and more sophisticated goods (such as mobile phones and computers), Viet Nam#s integration into global production networks has been instrumental in generating jobs
