The USAID Mekong Adaptation and Resilience to Climate Change (Mekong ARCC) is a five-year U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID)-funded project within the Lower Mekong Basin, covering communities in Thailand, Vietnam, Lao PDR, and Cambodia. The project aims to strengthen human and institutional capacity to develop and implement climate change adaptation plans and strategies; strengthen policies, tools, methodologies, and practices for ecosystem services valuation and climate resiliency; demonstrate and scale-up model actions for integrated approaches to climate change adaptation, and sustain regional learning networks to share and replicate best practices.
