Vietnam's response to its vulnerability to climate change impacts is marked by the integration of climate change concerns into sectoral laws. The Government of Vietnam has also acknowledged the interlinkages of climate change, gender equality, and mobility within its climate regulatory framework. However, the focus on climate-related mobility has predominantly centred on macro-level mobility, which refers to the broad categorisation of migration, displayment, and planned relocation, with limited attention given to micro-level mobility. This chapter understands micro-level mobility as the smaller-scale and day-today movements which involve individual decisions regarding daily activities, destinations, and modes of travels. Further, challenges remain in translating national commitments into local action, as evidenced by urban flooding in Can Tho City. Complex interactions between political, economics, social, and environmental elenments contribute to recurring floods, with a disconnection between central Government committments and local implementation, resulting in gendered impacts. Women in Can Tho City bear disproportionate impacts during recurring floods events, restricting their micro-level mobility in the household and public sphere. Women's decision to remain floods results from a complex interplay between risk perception, socio-economic elelments which contribute to vulnerability, and limited macro-level mobility options. However, at the same time, these women also actively employ strategies to cope with their restricted mobility, which signifies their agency in negotiating the associated risks and adapting to recurring floods. These insights into women's mobility behavior during flooding offer a valuable starting points for policymakers to integrate gender and mobility, both at the macro and micro-level dynamics, into concrete ciimate actions. The findings also underscore the need to pay more attentions to micro-level mobility within the climate-related mobility discourse.
