Vulnerability assessments related to forest-related disasters piloted in Cambodia and Viet Nam.

Development of an application to monitor forest fires and other forest related disasters as input for policy planning and implementation.

Capacity building for key actors from government, the private sector, and local communities.

Knowledge sharing across the Mekong region.

Gained insights into the fate and distribution of microplastics (MPs) in water, sediment, and fish within the Mekong River Basin (Thailand, and Viet Nam).

Evaluated contaminants of emerging concern (CECs) associated with MPs in water and sediment, establishing correlations between MPs and CECs in the environment (Thailand, and Viet Nam).

Identified suitable environmental management strategies through risk assessments of MPs and associated CECs on fisheries and aquaculture (Thailand, and Viet Nam).

Proposed and tested initiatives to reduce microplastic emissions and implemented technical solutions for treating microplastic pollution in the aquatic environment.

Increased public and local government awareness of the hazards posed by MPs and CECs, while promoting the 3R (Reduce, Reuse, Recycle) approach to waste management.

Fostered regional and international institutional collaboration to address plastic pollution effectively in the Mekong River Basin.
