- Ấn phẩmAssessing Vietnam’s sustainable agritourism by integrated multi-criteria decision-making approach(2025) Le, Thi Kim Trang; Nguyen, Hoang Phu; Nguyen, Ngọc QuiAgritourism has emerged as a contemporary tourism alternative in the post-COVID-19 era, adapting to the need to connect with nature while promoting a sustainable tourism model. As nations increasingly recognize agritourism’s potential, efforts to create suitable locations strategically are becoming a focal point in the tourism industry’s evolution towards more sustainable and enriching experiences. The study aims to select the most appropriate destination for sustainable agritourism development in Vietnam using the integrated Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) model, Best-Worst method (BWM), and spherical fuzzy Combined compromise solution (SF-CoCoSo) methods. To begin, the DEA model is employed to sift through potential locations. Subsequently, the BWM technique is utilized to establish the significance of the evaluation criteria, while the SF-CoCoSo technique determines the priority of destinations. The result shows that, among the twelve criteria, agricultural product potential (SC1) secures the top rank. After filtering out the five appropriate destinations, LamDong (DMU8) is the best location, promising prospects for promoting sustainable tourism, elevating agricultural value, and bolstering the rural economy. By combining these methodologies, the study seeks to give a thorough and accurate assessment of the sustainability of agritourism locations, enabling policymakers, managers, and investors to make informed decisions about agritourism development. These findings can apply to similar tourism types in the same context or other rural areas in decision-making. Further research on assessing criteria is required to comprehensively cover aspects of sustainable development.
- Ấn phẩmQualitative scenarios analysis for upgrading timber value chains: A case study in Thua Thien Hue province, central Vietnam(2025) La, Thi ThamThe forest transition in Vietnam is moving to the next step: to substantially improve the quality of plantation forests and enhance their economic achievement, social benefits and environmental services. To achieve these goals, the Vietnamese government has issued a number of policies, for example, to promote the domestic furniture processing industry and develop timber value chains (VCs). However, the further development of the timber industry remains uncertain under the impacts of influence factors. This study presents the findings from qualitative scenario analysis conducted to identify and evaluate different pathways of Acacia timber VCs in Thua Thien Hue province, where the species has been cultivated for >20 years. Contextual condition analysis and 15 key informant interviews facilitated the identification of three development scenarios based on the level of forest transition interventions and the reactions of key VC actors. The main criteria for VC assessment were justified according to the three pillars of sustainable development encompassing economic potential, social benefits and environmental improvement. Findings indicate a low level of effective implementation prospects of a fast transition model under the current situation. A slow transition scenario with a co-management model, instead, serves as a suitable development pathway.
- Ấn phẩmFactors shaping local residents’ participation in sustainable tourism: a case study in Vietnam(2025) Vu, Thi Hong PhuongThis study investigates the factors influencing local residents' attitudes and behaviors toward sustainable tourism participation, using an integrated theoretical framework that combines the Triple Bottom Line (TBL), Social Exchange Theory (SET), and ValueAttitude-Behavior (VAB) models. The TBL framework assesses sustainability across economic, social, and environmental dimensions, SET highlights the importance of perceived benefits in shaping community support, and VAB explores how values and attitudes translate into behavior. With this integration, the study filled the gap of previous research by examining the quality of life variable in two single-mediating and chain-mediating relationships between local residents' participation attitudes and participation behaviors in sustainable tourism development. Based on these foundations, a conceptual model was developed and tested through a survey of 574 residents in Northern Vietnam—specifically in Lao Cai, Ninh Binh, and Quang Ninh, regions known for community-based tourism. Data were analyzed using SmartPLS to assess the reliability and validity of the structural equation model. Findings reveal that residents’ perceptions of economic, social-cultural, and environmental benefits significantly influence their quality of life, which in turn affects both their attitudes and behaviors toward participation in sustainable tourism development. Moreover, quality of life and participatory attitudes serve as both individual and sequential mediators in these relationships. The study contributes to the theoretical discourse by demonstrating the combined application of TBL, SET, and VAB frameworks, and point out practical implications for tourism management agencies in focusing on solutions to create jobs, ensure sustainable livelihoods for residents, create open mechanisms; have policies to support and foster knowledge and skills to serve tourists; support the promotion of community tourism products to encourage and attract residents to participate in sustainable tourism development.
- Ấn phẩmApplying deep learning for boat detection and numerical modeling to assess sand mining impacts on river morphology: A case study in the Vietnamese Mekong Delta(2025) Vu, Thi HuongEffective management of riverbed sand mining is challenged by the lack of comprehensive data on sand mining volumes and their morphological impacts. This study presents an integrated framework combining deep learning, satellite imagery, and numerical modeling to monitor and assess the impacts of sand mining on river morphology in the Vietnamese Mekong Delta. A deep learning model was trained using Sentinel-1 imagery in 2023 to classify three boat types: Barge with Crane (BC), Sand Transport Boat (STB), and others. The model was then applied to detect BCs from 2014 to 2023, and the sand extraction volumes and areas were estimated. Finally, a Delft3D-FLOW model was employed to simulate the impacts of sand mining in the study period. Our deep learning model identified 386 BCs operating on the Bassac River in 2014–2023, with a total of 92.68–137.59 Mm3 of extracted sand, averaging 10.02–14.87 Mm3 annually. The numerical modeling results revealed significant riverbed incision, with a maximum annual net volume loss of − 29.48 Mm3 /yr and a mean erosion rate of up to − 0.82 m/yr. In addition, excessive sand mining formed 23 scour holes with depths up to 11 m and incised the thalweg at rates of up to − 1.18 m/yr. Sand mining maximally contributed 41.0–56.4 % of total riverbed incision during 2014–2023. These findings underscore the urgent need for improved sediment management strategies and regulatory frameworks. By providing a comprehensive assessment of sand mining impacts, this study supports the development of sustainable river management strategies in the region.
- Ấn phẩmCarbon pricing trends and policy options for Vietnam(2025) Dao, Gia PhucThe development of carbon markets and mechanisms has demonstrated a major effort to combat climate change in countries around the world. Recently, many countries have consistently adopted innovative carbon pricing mechanisms to successfully meet their commitments under the Paris Agreement. The concept of carbon pricing is being examined from a wider perspective, encompassing its role not just as a crucial policy for mitigating climate change but also as a means to generate money, stimulate innovation, and contribute to the achievement of larger sustainability and development objectives. This article investigates the current trend of carbon pricing and then identifies opportunities and challenges of such mechanism to combat climate change. Thereby undertaking a comprehensive examination of the diverse carbon pricing initiatives implemented by the global community and drawing implications for policies and laws in Viet Nam.
