Pricing reforms for sustainable water use and management in Vietnam

Pricing reforms for sustainable water use and management in Vietnam This study provides guidance on pricing policy reform to promote sustainable and socially inclusive water use and management in Vietnam. The study considers investment needs in the water sector, and reviews alternative approaches to water pricing that are likely to generate much-needed financial capital. Importantly, these changes can also motivate changes in behaviour by utilities and consumers to increase the efficiency and effectiveness of water resource use.
