    FAO Viet Nam in action: 2024 and beyond
    Championing agrifood systems transformation for a sustainable future

    As of mid-2025, the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) in Viet Nam reflects on a pivotal 2024, celebrating a shared development agenda that translated commitments into impactful results for agrifood systems. This retrospective also casts a forward glance, recognizing that the ongoing success hinges on continued collective action for Viet Nam's farmers and agricultural communities. The overarching goal, "Championing agrifood systems transformation for a sustainable future," is actively pursued through the "four betters" agenda, which robustly underpins the achievement of key Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).A central achievement in 2024 was the endorsement of the Partnership Agreement for Transparent, Responsible and Sustainable Food Systems Transformation in Viet Nam (FST-Partnership), marking a significant stride in realizing efficient, inclusive, resilient, and sustainable agrifood systems. The FAO Director-General’s early 2025 visit underscored this commitment, emphasizing that effective implementation will drive rapid progress across multiple SDGs.While celebrating successes, 2024 also presented complex challenges, notably the devastating Typhoon Yagi. FAO's swift response highlighted the intensifying climate threat and the critical importance of embedding climate resilience within vulnerable communities. The Emergency Centre for Transboundary Animal Diseases (ECTAD) team also remains vigilant on the One Health front, demonstrating innovation to achieve results despite funding constraints. With the 2030 SDG deadline looming, the report calls for redoubled efforts towards sustainable agrifood systems. It concludes by acknowledging the recent changes in Viet Nam’s government structure, reaffirming FAO's over 40-year fruitful partnership with the newly formed Ministry of Agriculture and Environment.

It assesses the broad and multi-directional interplay between climate action and sustainable development. It identifies the various pathways by which economic, social and environmental co-benefits can be generated from adaptation interventions in agriculture (covering crops, livestock, forestry, fisheries and aquaculture), across sectors and at different scales.
