I am a lecturer at the University of Economics, Hue University (Vietnam), and currently pursuing a PhD in Agriculture and Rural Development at the University of Liège, Belgium. I hold a Master’s degree in Environmental Science from Okayama University, Japan. My research focuses on sustainable agriculture, climate change adaptation, and rural development. I am particularly interested in how smallholder farmers in vulnerable regions adapt to environmental and economic changes through alternative cropping systems and farming strategies. My current work also examines value chain development and agricultural product upgrading as pathways to improve rural livelihoods. While my present research is based in Vietnam, I aim to expand it to developing countries' contexts in the future.
