Initial assessment of some related socio-economic parameters under the impacts of climate change at district 8 in Ho Chi Minh city

Results of this study show that the level of CC impacts on the residential areas is rather high, with an average LVI of 0.056. In addition, the results of AHP shown that the impact levels on the study fields are determined to follow a decreasing order as: first level group including energy, water supply and drainage, transport, and public health (with total score 0.22). | Journal of Science and Technology 54 (2A) (2016) 214-221 INITIAL ASSESSMENT OF SOME RELATED SOCIO-ECONOMIC PARAMETERS UNDER THE IMPACTS OF CLIMATE CHANGE AT DISTRICT 8 IN HO CHI MINH CITY Nguyen Phu Bao1, Tran Tuan Viet1, *, Nguyen Thi Minh Hoa2, Nguyen Dinh Huan3, VoThi Yen4, Pham Hong Nhat1 1 Institute for Tropicalization and Environment (ITE), 57A Truong Quoc Dung, Phu Nhuan District, Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam 2 University of Labour and Social Affairs, 1018 To Ky, District 12, Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam 3 Industrial university of Ho Chi Minh City, 12 Nguyen Van Bao Street, Go Vap District, Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam 4 Ho Chi Minh University of Technology, 268 Ly Thuong Kiet, District 10, Ho Chi Minh City * Email: viet.vittep@gmail.com Received: 1 April 2016; Accepted for publication: 15 June 2016 ABSTRACT About 7.9 % of population is living in poverty at District 8, which is one of the most vulnerable areas to climate change in Ho Chi Minh City (HCMC). The impacts of climate change (CC) on some related socio-economic parameters at District 8 were assessed using analytic hierarchy process (AHP) and livelihood vulnerability index (LVI). For this, four Asian Development Bank’s criteria including public health, transport, energy, and water supply and drainage (WSD) were used. In addition, however, six World Bank’s criteria including land use, population, gross domestic product (GDP), urban expansion, agriculture and wetland were also used just for initially trying whether or to what extent they can be useful for such downscaled application. Results of this study show that the level of CC impacts on the residential areas is rather high, with an average LVI of 0.056. In addition, the results of AHP shown that the impact levels on the study fields are determined to follow a decreasing order as: first level group including energy, water supply and drainage, transport, and public health (with total score 0.22); the second level group including land use and wetland
