Study Reveals Impacts from Yali Falls Dam on Communities Inside Vietnam

Based on field research, this 2001 report details the impacts in Vietnam along the Sesan River arising from the construction of the Yali Falls dam. At the resettlement sites, the study investigates living standards and compensation arrangements. It identifies difficulties these communities face including immediate food and water shortages, and an absence of long-term challenges to ensure income and livelihood security. Downstream communities dependent on the river were found to have suffered from flooding and poor water quality. (English / Vietnamese)
