Seeing is believing, literally. Videos can help provide female farmers improve agriculture gains in low income countries.

Vietnam is one of the most vulnerable countries to climate change in the entire world. From sea level rise to saltwater intrusion to flooding to drought, the impacts are numerous and will likely be severe.
