Marketing products based on ecosystem-based adaptation (EbA) approaches for selected forest and farm producer organisations

This report on marketing forest and farm products based on ecosystem-based adaptation approaches (EbA) was commissioned by the International Institute for Environment and Development (IIED) and supported by the Vietnam Farmers’ Union (VNFU) for the Global EbA Fund project, Scaling up Community-led EbA in Biodiverse Forest Landscapes in Viet Nam. The information and views set out in this report are those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the official opinions of IIED, any related working groups, institutions or bodies, nor of any person acting on their behalf. The objective of this study was to develop marketing plans for selected EbA-based forest and farm products in order to engage members of forest and farm producer organisation (FFPO) with relevant markets for Participatory Guarantee System (PGS)-certified products with EbA quality claims for at least five value chains in Northern Viet Nam. The research team would like to express its sincere gratitude to the IIED team, the FFF management board and the VNFU central committee. Special thanks are extended to the facilitators in the five provinces of the research area, the cooperative directors and the heads of cooperative groups who supported the research team in collecting data to gain a comprehensive perspective on capacities, needs and adaptation solutions through local production models.
