SNV has been working in Vietnam since 1995, and currently has over 40 national and international staff. SNV Vietnam operates from a head office in Hanoi and projects in over 41 provinces in the country, including in the poorest and most remote areas.

In the Mekong Delta of Vietnam, SNV Vietnam is implementing the project Transforming the Rice Value Chain (TRVC) for Climate Resilient and Sustainable Development (TRVC) in An Giang, Dong Thap, and Kien Giang provinces. The project aims to use a results-based financing mechanism to incentivize private enterprises in the rice value chain (RVC) to invest in scaling sustainable rice production among smallholder farmers (SHFs) and marketing domestically and internationally in the most rice intensive production provinces over five years (2022 2027). It is built on three core strategic objectives, namely (1) improving climate resilience, (2) optimizing rice value chain linkages, and (3) developing carbon markets. The TRVC project aims to build on the successes of the AgResults Vietnam Emission Reduction Challenges Project (AVERP), which piloted the results-based prize incentive model in the Thai Binh province to attract a diverse pool of private sector actors to implement improved rice farming practices.
