  • Rural–Urban Transition of Hanoi (Vietnam): Using Landsat Imagery to Map Its Recent Peri-Urbanization
    International Journal of Geo-Information Article Rural–Urban Transition of Hanoi (Vietnam): Using Landsat Imagery to Map Its Recent Peri-Urbanization Giovanni Mauro Department of Humanities, University of Trieste, via Lazzaretto Vecchio 8, 34100 Trieste, Italy; [email protected]; Tel.: +(39)-040-5583631 Received: 23 September 2020; Accepted: 11 November 2020; Published: 12 November 2020 Abstract: The current trend towards global urbanization presents new environmental and social challenges. For this reason, it is increasingly important to monitor urban growth, mainly in those regions undergoing the fastest urbanization, such as Southeast Asia. Hanoi (Vietnam) is a rapidly growing medium-sized city: since new economic policies were introduced in 1986, this area has experienced a rapid demographic rise and radical socio-economic transformation. In this study, we aim to map not only the recent urban expansion of Hanoi, but also of its surroundings. For this reason, our study area consists of the districts within a 30km radius of the city center. To analyze the rural–urban dynamics, we identified three hypothetical rings from the center: the core (within a 10 km radius), the first ring (the area between 10 and 20 km) and, finally, the outer zone (over 20 km). To map land use/land cover (LULC) changes, we classified a miniseries of Landsat images, collected approximately every ten years (1989, 2000, 2010 and 2019). To better define the urban dynamics, we then applied the following spatial indexes: the rate of urban expansion, four landscape metrics (the number of patches, the edge length, the mean patch area and the largest patch index) and the landscape expansion index.

  • Ongoing Water Environmental Awareness Program Being
    *This news letter is an English translation of LIXIL Corporation’s news letter issued on April 30, 2013 in Japan. April 30, 2013 LIXIL Corporation Ongoing Water Environmental Awareness Program Being Provided in Cooperation with Environmental Awareness Program International NPOs in Vietnam 2013 - Learned the Importance of Water with Local Children - Hoa Binh, Fue, Ho Chi Minh March 9 - 15, 2013 Since 2007, LIXIL Corporation (Headquarters: Chiyoda-ward in Tokyo, President: Yoshiaki Fujimori) and its local subsidiary LIXIL INAX VIETNAM Corporation (“LIXIL VIETNAM”) have been conducting the “Water Environmental Awareness Program” for children in the Socialist Republic of Vietnam (“Vietnam”). At present, we are promoting the program in collaboration with two international NPOs, namely Bridge Asia Japan (“BAJ”) and Seed to Table (“STT”). Amid its recent economic growth, Vietnam has been facing a range of problems including a broadening gap between the wealthy and the poor, environmental pollution, sanitation problems, children’s rights, etc. Unfortunately, such problems are not fully dealt with in their current social systems. Meanwhile, LIXIL (former INAX) has established its current position in the market in tandem with the Vietnamese economic development. To contribute to the local community, LIXIL has been providing unique environmental classes featuring “water” by partnering with well-established international NPOs since 2007. LIXIL aims to offer what is really necessary for the children of Vietnam who will become future leaders of the country. We are not merely trying to give financial aid, but consistently proposing educational programs with consideration to the social conditions and circumstances in Vietnam. For example, we have created an original textbook “Let us think about and study water” and dispatched our employees as instructors.

  • The Case of the Mekong Delta, Vietnam
    Article International Development Policies and Coastalscape Metabolism: The Case of the Mekong Delta, Vietnam Andrea Zinzani Global Development Institute, University of Manchester, Manchester M13 9PL, UK; [email protected] or [email protected] Received: 14 December 2017; Accepted: 22 January 2018; Published: 26 January 2018 Abstract: Over the last few decades, coastalscapes have been seriously threatened by the rising effects of climate change such as sea level rise, coastal degradation and extreme flooding. To cope with these threats, since 1992, international development organisations have promoted Integrated Coastal Zone Management (ICZM) and its implementation in particular in coastal regions of the “Global South”. Inspired by a political ecology of development approach, this paper analyses coastalscape metabolism and community level socio-environmental transformations in relation to ICZM implementation politics in the Mekong Delta, Vietnam. ICZM was designed to integrate management of coastal regions and to promote socio-economic and environmental sustainability. By adopting the concept of metabolism to coastalscapes, and reflecting on their interactions, data were collected through qualitative field-research at the community level in the Mekong Delta. Research shows that ICZM and its development initiatives implementation slightly shaped coastalscape governance and communities relations, merely influencing policy-making and state bureaucratic structure and legitimation. Rather, the Mekong Delta coastalscape
