Questions?
How can we integrate a flexible and participatoryapproach plan like CDS into current rigid and topdown approach planning process in Vietnam?
Should the current Vietnam planning approach
be flexible and allow for adaptations by
stimulating the development of add-ons along
the way which would allow for addressing climate
change more explicitly in retrospective?
