Introduction 1.1. Background Climate change vulnerability is a core target issue which is needed to be assessed in the project entitled “Reducing the Vulnerability of Cambodian Rural Livelihoods through Enhanced Sub- national Climate Change Planning and Execution of Priority Actions (SRL)”. The project has the objective to improve Sub-national administration systems affecting investments in rural livelihoods through climate sensitive planning, budgeting and execution. One of many tasks in the project, vulnerability identification through mapping is important for sub-national administration to put into consideration for development priority area. Climate change vulnerability map is a tool for identifying level of risk due climate related hazard and condition of community resilience. This report is trying to summary the working package for producing the map of vulnerability index. It describes the methodological framework, data acquisition and result discussion. The SRL project selected the target area for vulnerability assessment covers five district in Siem Reap province and five districts in Kampong Thom province. Vulnerability, flood and drought map of the ten targeted districts are the main outputs of the assignment. A variety of different environmental and socioeconomic input parameters are scaled, reclassified and weighted to provide best possible precision and accuracy during time of modeling required maps of hazards and their consequences. The results of the vulnerability map have been verified though field verification in selected district of both province and the map production have been improved several time after receiving comment from district and commune officials. The results of and full package of data,

  • ANNUAL REPORT 2018 “Helping Women to Help Themselves”
    ANNUAL REPORT 2018 “Helping women to help themselves” A woman saving group member in Kralanh district, Siem Reap with her dragon fruit plantation 1 INTRODUCTION National machinery and mechanisms are in place to promote gender equality in Cambodia; however, we cannot say gender equality is a reality. The majority of women who live in rural areas still lack access to basic necessities of life, with all girls and women facing unequal access to healthcare, education, employment and political participation. Violence is a lived reality for a large percentage of the population, especially women, and post-conflict issues such as instability in the family, diminished human capital, and poverty impact on women’s enjoyment of their human rights. Cambodia, emerging from years of intense violence and suffering, is still one of the poorest countries in Southeast Asia, despite huge increases in development and the economy. Implementation of recently updated laws and international protocols is irregular, due in part to a lack of training and education about the law at various levels. The work of CWCC in education about the law is important. It is still unclear how the planned NGO law will affect the work of CWCC. Poverty is a crosscutting issue in our work. Lack of access to education and resources impacts women and girls the most, and these effects have only been exacerbated by the global financial crisis, with an accompanying loss in a huge amount of factory jobs. In addition, the implementation of new taxation laws is expected to bring increased poverty, which leads to increases in such high-risk choices as migration for work.

The data received from some licensees may not up to the required level of accuracy and hence the information provided in this report may be taken as indicative. This report is for dissemination to the Royal Government, institutions, investors and public desirous to know about the situation of the power sector of the Kingdom of Cambodia during the year 2012. With addition of more HV transmission system and MV sub-transmission system, more and more licensees are getting connected to the grid supply. This has resulted in improvement in the quality of supply to more consumers. By end of 2012, more than 91% of the consumers are connected to the grid system. More licensees are now supplying electricity for 24 hours a day. The grid supply has reduced the cost of supply and consequently the tariff for supply to consumers. Due to lower cost and other measures taken by Royal Government of Cambodia, in 2012 there has been a substantial increase in the number of consumers availing electricity supply.
