Abstract: " Objective - Vietnam is one of the world's most severely affected countries by climate change. The consequences of climate change reduce the goal of poverty alleviation and sustainable development of the country. Quang Ninh is a coastal province with vigorous development in industry and tourism and is the leading province in Provincial Competitiveness Index (PCI) in Vietnam in recent years. Methodology/Technique - However, for many years, Quang Ninh province has suffered many negative impacts of climate change. Based on empirical evidence, the article assesses the vulnerability in people's livelihoods under the impact of climate change in Quang Ninh province by using the Livelihood Vulnerability Index (LVI) developed by Hahn, Riederer, and Foster. Findings - The paper also assesses livelihood vulnerability based on the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC.) The research results show that the components of responding well to climate change are not acceptable. Novelty - The study also shows that there should be different policies, strategies, and reduction components to improve the capacity to respond to climate change to ensure sustainable development goals. Type of Paper - Empirical"
