Abstract

Water is a precious resource and affects all aspects of human activity. However, in recent years, due to population growth, economic development
and in particularly the impacts of climate change, water resources got a lot of pressures. For sustainable management of water resources,
it is needed to assess this resources vulnerability in order to proactively propose solutions to optimize management and minimize impacts. Calculation results show the vulnerable index of the moutainous basins is 0,38-04: average; middle basins is 0,47-0,66: high; coastal basins is 0,72- 0,74: very high. The proper solutions are implemented immediately such as building lakes, dams; promulgating the suitable management policies.
