It pointed to early results including a large renewable energy build-out in ASEAN, a 1 million hectare high-quality, low-emissions rice initiative, and participation in major multilateral mechanisms and initiatives such as the Paris Agreement, the Just Energy Transition Partnership (JETP) and P4G. It also noted that Vietnam has largely put in place planning and policy frameworks for green growth, while highlighting constraints around finance, technology, skills, climate resilience and geopolitical volatility, and called for stronger international and public-private cooperation, including on green finance.
