Sammanfattning: This master thesis examines the implementation of Community Based Disaster Risk Management (CBDRM) in the Mekong Delta in Vietnam. The report is based on a literature study in the field of CBDRM together with an interview study conducted with organisations operating in the region. The thesis shows that CBDRM has been an effective approach in the Mekong Delta and that used modes and modalities have resulted in more resilient communities with a higher capacity to deal with imminent threats from disasters. However, CBDRM is still a fairly new concept and further research should be conducted in order to study the long-term effects.
