Contexto | (general and related to relevant area): Income from farming and natural resources remains fundamental to the livelihoods, nutrition and food security of 65% of Cambodians. Recent economic development has been accompanied by economic land concessions, mining and hydropower dams, coupled with the effect of climate change and natural hazard including the recent pandemic particularly affecting the livelihoods of poor rural households, especially women and indigenous people who depend on fisheries and forestry as sources of subsistence. In response, the Government has enacted environmental policy reforms, enabled multi-stakeholder dialogue with the private sector to improve value chains for forest products, fish and eco-tourism, and made international commitments to sustainably manage Cambodia’s natural resources and environment. NGOs play an important role as intermediaries between authorities and communities to provide capacity building and advance and strengthen inclusive natural resource planning and management. |
