This case study report is based on findings from a special gender mission, which involved meeting people from villages in Viet Nam (Pa Dhi, Pa Pang, Pa Rum A, Pa Rum B, and Thon 2) affected by the Song Bung 4 Hydropower Project (SB4). The mission was led by Samantha Hung, senior social development (gender) specialist, Regional and Sustainable Development Department with Monawar Sultana (former Asian Development Bank [ADB] staff and project consultant), accompanied by Song Bung 4 Hydropower Project Management Board (SB4HPMDB) staff Tran Ngoc Ha (vice manager, Environment and Resettlement Division) and Nguyen Ngoc Boi (staff, Environment and Resettlement Division). Thanks are due to the following ADB staff peer reviewers from various departments who provided valuable comments in finalizing the report: Shireen Lateef, Michiko Suga, Uzma Hoque, Scott Ferguson, and Ruwani Jayewardene.
