Situation analysis of gender and forestry in Viet Nam

In December 2024, the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH released the report “Gender Analysis in the Forestry Sector in Vietnam”. This report is part of the project “Support to the Implementation of FLEGT VPA in Vietnam”, carried out by GIZ in collaboration with the Forest Protection Department under the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development (MARD).

This report provides a situation analysis of gender-related rights and gender dimensions in forestry in Viet Nam in connection to three sub-sectors: forestry production, forest product processing, and furniture manufacturing. The report synthesises the available statistical information and secondary research on gender and forestry. It examines the legal setting of gender-related rights and critical issues and trends in the application and realisation of these rights.

And it identifies future priorities and opportunities, including policy considerations to advance gender equality in forestry, and recommendations for achieving the Sustainable Development Goal #8 on decent work and inclusive economic growth in the forest industries.
