This analysis presents the business case for sustainable Robusta coffee cultivation in the Central Highlands region of Vietnam. In recent years, intercropping models involving coffee interspersed with shade or fruit trees have demonstrated their potential to generate multiple benefits to smallholders and the environment. This analysis focuses on the economic benefits of transitioning from an intensive coffee cultivation model to three different intercropping models: avocado, durian and cassia siamea and pepper, and makes recommendations concerning the transition pathway that will be most accessible to smallholders.

Manual for Interlocutors: To Conduct FPIC Village Consultation Meetings
Published by the International Centre for International Mountain Development (ICIMOD), this manual has been prepared for facilitators working with planners and multiple stakeholders in the development of subnational plans for REDD+ action. It is based on the idea that subnational REDD+ planning is essential for operationalising a REDD+ national strategy. Using pilot subnational REDD+ action plan experiences in Vietnam and Nepal over the period 2014-2016, it is written in a prescriptive style, but the methodology is generic and can be adapted to the country context and requirements.

This strategy should set out the actions, often referred to as “policies and measures” (PAMs), and governance arrangements to ensure the achievement of a country’s REDD+ objectives.
