The program aimed to disrupt trafficking in person (TIP) patterns by offering diversified, climate-resilient livelihood pathways that reduce dependence on seasonal agriculture and by educating vulnerable individuals on unsafe migration. NORC conducted this study in partnership with USAID’s Center of Excellence on Democracy, Human Rights, and Governance (DRG), USAID/Cambodia, and Winrock International (hereafter “Winrock”), CTIP’s implementing partner. Based on discussions with counter-trafficking stakeholders, Winrock implemented two interventions. The first was the livelihoods package intervention (hereafter “Treatment 1”) that connected at-risk persons (ARPs) for trafficking to legitimate employers and trained ARPs in “soft skills” to help them retain their jobs. To that end, Winrock and its partner, Open Institute, developed an internet-based job- matching platform called Bong Pheak to inform low-skilled migrants about job opportunities and also offered workplace professionalism trainings that included modules on types of employment and how to find job information. The second intervention (hereafter “Treatment 2”) added a customized bundle of activities to the first intervention, by offering technical assistance to ARPs (e.g., animal raising trainings, savings groups) based on commune-specific needs. EVALUATION DESIGN The evaluation employed a mixed-method design, combining qualitative key informant interviews with a rigorous RCT design involving random assignment of 28 communes to receive Treatment 1 and 19 communes to receive Treatment 2. Twenty-eight communes were also randomly selected to serve as the business-as-usual control group. The evaluation collected quantitative data on ARPs and ARP households using a survey of 2,665 at-risk households and qualitative information from interviews with project implementation staff and program beneficiaries. The evaluation was designed to focus on ARPs between ages 18 and 39, both because they form a large share of the working-age population who could benefit the most from the type of intervention implemented by Winrock, and also because they are the most at risk for being labor-trafficked. The original research design was to randomly select households at the baseline, screen ARPs, and then follow them to endline as part of a panel survey. We collected baseline data in October 2016 using a streamlined selection protocol to identify the most at-risk member within each randomly selected household. However due to a significant delay in funding and the suspension of CTIP activities until June 2018, new beneficiaries needed to be selected to replace respondents who could not be located or refused assistance. During this time, Winrock made substantial changes to the ARP screening process. Because we did not have the baseline information for the beneficiaries selected using the new screening protocol, we revised our sampling and analysis plan in March 2019 to use cross-sectional data from endline only to estimate impacts. The lack of availability of baseline values for individual outcomes results in a lack of precision for estimated impacts. In order to supplement the results of the impact analysis and gain a better understanding of the program implementation and perspective of beneficiaries, we conducted in-depth interviews with six Winrock staff members and 10 program beneficiaries who either declined to participate in or dropped out of activities.

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.

  • 3. Present Situation and Issues of Rural Electrification
    Final Report (Master Plan) Vol 2 Part 1 Chapter 3 3. PRESENT SITUATION AND ISSUES OF RURAL ELECTRIFICATION 3.1 OUTLINE OF POWER SUPPLY IN CAMBODIA Electricity was introduced in Cambodia first in the year 1906. Up to the year 1958, electricity in Cambodia was supplied by the three (3) private companies, namely CEE, UNEDI and CFKE. At the time, CEE supplied electricity to Phnom Penh and its surrounding areas and UNEDI to all provinces except for Battambang, which was supplied by CFKE. In 1958, the Government took over CEE and UNEDI and established a new state-own enterprise called as EdC. In 1958, total installed capacity in the country was approximately 30 MW, of which 16 MW was owned by EdC and others by private companies. In 1970, total installed capacity of EdC reached 61 MW, 68.5% of the total capacity of the country (79 MW). During 1971 to 1979, the power sector in the country passed through two dangerous events: social disorder triggered by a coup d'etat (1971-1975) and turbulent history during the Pol Pot Regime (1975- 1979). During this time, all kinds of generation, transmission and distribution facilities were destroyed not only in Phnom Penh but also in other areas. After the liberation in 1979, the Government started to restore the electricity infrastructure in the capital town and main provincial towns of the country. At that time, the whole electricity supply in the country was under management of the Ministry of Industry. The Government re-established EdC with the task of electricity supply in Phnom Penh and established small enterprises in provinces with the responsibility to supply electricity in each province.
