With the Project "Shifting Investment Flows Towards Green Transformation in Viet Nam (SHIFT)", GIZ directly links these priority areas with Viet Nam's Green Growth Strategy as well as development finance in order to achieve lasting impacts in all sectors and facilitate Viet Nam's progress towards a sustainable future. More specifically, SHIFT aims to reduce Viet Nam's greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in line with low-carbon economic development and the energy transition through policies and investments for enhanced, national climate action, especially in the energy sector.
The SHIFT project is funded by the German Federal Ministry of Economic Affairs and Climate Action (BMWK) as part of the International Climate Initiative (IKI). The Ministry of Planning and Investment is SHIFT's lead political partner and facilitates coordination with the main financial market regulators, i.e. Ministry of Finance (MoF), State Bank of Viet Nam (SBV), as well as main energy sector policy maker, i.e. Ministry of Industry and Trade (MoIT).
SHIFT is implemented by a consortium of six partners, with Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit GmbH (GIZ) as consortium lead.
