Climate change is a global threat requiring the cooperation of all stakeholders, including governments, corporations, and civil society, to mitigate its harmful impacts and to ensure a just climate transition to a low-carbon, more resource-efficient, and sustainable economy. Under the Paris Agreement and the 2030 UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), countries are expected to mobilize all possible efforts and resources (human, financial, and capital) to achieve targeted climate and energy goals.
Jointly co-organized by the Association of Vietnamese Scientists and Experts (AVSE Global), the University of Danang – University of Economics, and Massey University, the 2023 Vietnam Symposium in Climate Transition (VSCT-2023, IN-PERSON and ONLINE) aims to provide a leading forum for academics, practitioners, and policymakers to present their research findings and discuss current and challenging issues in climate transition, environment, and energy change mitigation and adaptation. The Symposium is also ideal for Vietnamese scholars to exchange research experiences and develop research projects with their international colleagues.
