Can Tho in southern Vietnam's Mekong Delta is a city often submerged under floods in the rainy season facing inundation from both sides: the Mekong River's channels and the rising sea tides. As climate risks increase, the city planners are struggling to find solutions to provide clean water to its residents. SN researchers are helping policymakers and others to better understand and address the climate risks and the clean water challenges of this rapidly urbanizing city in the Mekong Region.
