International Development Group LLC is an international development consulting firm that assists donors, governments, and the private sector to create and take advantage of opportunities for sustainable, broad-based economic development and poverty reduction.

**Project Background**

The VDT is a two-year activity (2023-2025) addressing regulatory gaps and promoting private sector engagement in the rapidly growing digital economy. USAID VDT activity (“VDT”) supports the Ministry of Industry and Trade’s (MOIT) implementation of frameworks that facilitate digital trade, with an emphasis on supporting MOIT in holding public-private dialogues to ensure implementation is done in consultation with the private sector. Regulations that are responsive to private sector needs remove bottlenecks in trade faced by enterprises and increase regulatory transparency, helping to shape an e-commerce sector where enterprises of all sizes can benefit. The activity encourages the participation of small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in digital trade by introducing new business models and other best practices, such as traceability of goods, as well as facilitating cross-border connections between enterprises via MOIT’s digital trade promotion platform.

**Activity Background**

The assessment will encompass the mitigation of the environmental impact of rice production, especially concerning water usage and methane emissions. It will address food safety standards, focusing on pesticide use and potential contamination with mycotoxins like aflatoxin. Ultimately, the activity seeks to improve the transparency of the rice supply chain, allowing for better origin tracing and promoting sustainable production practices without directly implementing these changes.

The activity will include the following tasks:

- Conducting survey to production households, exporters and state management agencies about the current situation and interviewing a number of large enterprises in Can Tho and Ho Chi Minh City (HCMC).
- Workshop and trainings to relevant stakeholders.

To conduct this activity, the VDT will mobilize two local experts and one international expert to implement the following tasks:
In consultation with the VDT Technical team, the **Local Expert 2** will work primarily closely with the MOIT Agency for Foreign Trade and the other STTA local and international experts. The Local Expert 2 may also be required to work in collaboration with other members of the VDT team in order to undertake this activity.

**Key Tasks/Responsibilities**:

- Provide comments on the activity plan and the timeline, prepared by Local Expert 1.
- Develop part of the questionnaires with focused on requirements for environment and origin of rice production in cooperation with Expert 1;
- Identify key stakeholders for sending survey questionnaires and interviews (focused on requirements for environment and origin of rice production);
