I am a Master student in Gender and Development Studies at the Asian Institute of Technology, Thailand. Still keep working for the Center for Social Research and Development (CSRD), a local, non-profit Vietnamese NGO, based in Hue City, I work with vulnerable women to build capacity in decision making relevant to their livelihoods; and to adapt with climate change, and industrial development. To assist CSRD and 2 other organizations coordinate the Vietnam Rivers Network (VRN), I do monitor social impact assessments of hydropower projects in Central Vietnam. My wish is to raise women’s voice to stakeholders in approval process of hydropower projects. Social impacts should be considered carefully as well as environment impacts to minimize influences on women who are responsible of poverty management in families.
