(VOV) – The Ministry of Planning and Investment (MPI) hosted a workshop in Hanoi on September 13 to complete a national draft plan of action on green growth in Vietnam.
- Belgium finances green growth in Vietnam
- Green growth’s necessary inevitability
- Vietnam’s green growth action plan needs implementation
MPI Deputy Minister Nguyen The Phuong noted that implementing the action plan will help restructure the national growth model, improve natural resource use efficiency, generate jobs, hone the economy’s international competitiveness, and improve citizens’ living conditions.
Participants said Vietnam’s growth model is moving towards prioritizing sustainable development in addition to the standard industrialisation and modernisation goals.
They agreed that incorporating green growth precepts will be vital to the success of this transformation, including reducing pollution and greenhouse gas emissions, ensuring natural resources are used mindfully and with long-term vision, encouraging the business community to embrace clean technology, and cooperating with and learning from the experiences of foreign partners.
They proposed focusing on training and allocating the draft plan’s required human resources in coordination with central and local agencies. They also stressed the importance of raising society’s environmental awareness and orienting financial policy to serve green growth.
The workshop heard support committed by Korean partners will help Vietnam overcome any challenges encountered while pursuing its green growth strategy.
The MPI will gather opinions and complete the draft before submitting it to the government for approval.
