Sustainable climate technology transfer for mitigation and adaptation take into consideration the capacities and knowledge already available in communities’ experiencing the effects of climate change, and in which the technologies and approaches are to be implemented. In this section you can for example read more about how the CTCN is working with stakeholders in Gambia on a community-based livelihood improvement program, or with the Department of Forestry in Mali to identify climate adaptation technologies with rural communities. Below you will find related publications, partners, CTCN technical assistance, technologies and other information for exploring this topic further.

Viet Nam’s Mekong Delta (VMD) is the third largest delta on Earth, and is currently home to 17 million inhabitants, whose livelihoods depend mainly on agricultural and aquacultural production. The VMD, with its extremely low-lying delta plain (average elevation of ~80 cm), is particularly vulnerable to even small changes in relative sea level rise, but also to other climate change impacts, such as increased frequency of intense dry seasons and droughts.

Context
The coastal zone is one of the nation's greatest environmental and economic assets of Liberia. However, the evolution of coastline variations is considered as one of the most dynamic processes affecting this area. Liberia has initiated its Technology Needs Assessment (TNA) in 2019. Integrated Coastal Zone Management has been identified as one of the three and the most important technologies priorities for the country along with Flood Early Warning System and Armour or Rock Revetment.
