The project aims at generating methodologically rigorous evidence in four areas: (1) whether insurance enhances the climate resilience of households in rural Vietnam, (2) whether premium discounts encourage insurance uptake, (3) whether training on product understanding encourages insurance uptake, and (4) whether providing households with access to climate projections encourages insurance uptake. We will combine unique existing data – a household panel survey with eight waves serving as baseline – with a follow-up survey and several randomized controlled trials.
