Capacity of relevant stakeholders on digital technology application in disaster risk reduction and management will be improved. The skills and productivity of target groups will be increased through the establishment of producer groups, the provision of trainings on relevant techniques for sustainable food and non-food production, as well as the provision of inputs to apply 4.0 business acceleration techniques on climate smart food and non-food production and marketing. A virtual platform will be created to allow producers to access relevant information.

Producer groups will be equipped with devices to improve the groups’ activities management. To increase producers’ access to local and digital markets and allow them to adopt their products to market needs, training on e-commerce and production of marketing contents will be implemented and producer groups will receive access to production management software application, production database, traceability stamps and register for barcodes.

Hintergrundinformation

Despite being adversely impacted by severe weather conditions and natural disaster risks, Nhu Xuan district does not have automatic rain measuring stations or early warning systems. On the other hand, the vulnerable groups in the target locations have insufficient knowledge to adapt their production to the weather conditions. Furthermore, the lack of digitalisation adoption in production, low product quality, lack of access to microfinance services has led to low productivity and competitiveness, limited market access. As a result, households do not generate sufficient income for to address their households' needs and ensure child wellbeing.
