The Mekong Delta not only plays an important role in food security of Vietnam, but it also contributes to food security in the world. However, according to the recent forecasts of Vietnam and international research institutes, the Mekong Delta is one of the areas most seriously affected under the influence of climate change.

The conference was purposeful to share research results, different patterns of adaptation to climate change, and discuss the following actions to make it productive in collaboration between the projects and programs, with the objective to help the Mekong Delta cope well with climate change.
