Abstract
In a multi-sector and multi-region framework, this paper employs a dynamic general equilibrium model to analyze climate-resilient economic development (DGE-CRED) in Vietnam. We calibrate sector and region-specific damage functions and quantify climate variable impacts on productivity and capital formation for various shared socioeconomic pathways (SSPs 119, 245, and 585). Our results based on simulations and cost-benefit analyses reveal a projected 5 percent reduction in annual GDP by 2050 in the SSP 245 scenario. Adaptation measures for the dyke system are crucial to mitigate the consumption gap, but they alone cannot sufficiently address it. Climate-induced damages to agriculture and labor productivity are the primary drivers of consumption reductions, underscoring the need for focused adaptation measures in the agricultural sector and strategies to reduce labor intensity as vital policy considerations for Vietnam’s response to climate change.

Abstract
Fußball-Welt- und Europameisterschaften sind große gesellschaftliche Ereignisse. Gesamtwirtschaftlich fallen sie in großen Volkswirtschaften mit bestehender Sport- und Verkehrsinfrastruktur und vorhandenen Kapazitäten im Gastgewerbe allerdings kaum ins Gewicht. In diesem Beitrag werden Studien zu den ökonomischen Effekten von Sportgroßveranstaltungen zusammengefasst, die wirtschaftlichen Effekte der Fußball-Weltmeisterschaft 2006 in Deutschland untersucht und daraus die zu erwartenden gesamtwirtschaftlichen Effekte der Fußball-Europameisterschaft 2024 in Deutschland abgeleitet. Die Bauaktivität in den Spielorten nimmt im Vorfeld der Meisterschaften zu; Effekte auf das Gastgewerbe gibt es hingegen kaum – vermutlich vor allem aufgrund von Verdrängungseffekten. Insgesamt war die gesamte nominale Bruttowertschöpfung im WM-Jahr 2006 in den Spielorten gut 1% höher als ohne die WM zu erwarten gewesen wäre; in realer Rechnung ist insgesamt kein signifikanter Effekt zu beobachten.
