It was conducted by an independent evaluation team in March 2009, with preparatory activities in February 2009. The ILO/IPEC Project, “Support to the Cambodian National Plan of Action on the Elimination of the Worst Forms of Child Labour: A Time Bound Approach”, also known as the Project of Support to the National Action Plan (PoS NAP) has the following three immediate objectives: Immediate Objective 1: By the end of the project, national and provincial policy frameworks and implementation capacity to combat WFCL will have been strengthened. Immediate Objective 2: By the end of the project, key stakeholders and networks at all levels will have been mobilized effectively to combat WFCL. Immediate Objective 3: By the end of the project, integrated, effective and sustainable responses to fight against WFCL are in place in selected provinces and to serve as pilot models for Cambodia. Project activities were diverse and included: • Technical inputs to policy and law makers for strengthening the national and provincial policy and legal framework to combat child labour; • Assistance including training and material procurements to build the management and organizational capacity of relevant Cambodian actors and institutions to contribute to the elimination of the WFCL; • Efforts to expand knowledge, raise awareness and mobilize key persons, ILO tripartite partners (government, labour organizations and employers’ associations), civil society and the public at large against child

Phnom Penh is the capital of Cambodia having more than 1.3 million people. RCE Greater Phnom Penh (RCE GPP) was established in December 2009 to promote ESD in Cambodia. RCE Greater Phnom Penh covers not only Phnom Penh but also surrounding provinces, such as Kampong Cham, Kampong Chhnang, Kampong Speu, Kandal, Prey Veng and Takeo. Recently, in Kampong Cham province of Cambodia, subsistence agriculture tends to be converted to mono-culture. Also, more that 60 percent of farmers have been applying agricultural chemicals without understanding the impact on health and food safety. It is necessary to promote and enhance the understanding of sustainable agriculture among local people including farmers and elementary school students, as the students are the successors of local farmers. So, attention has been paid to Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) in the agricultural sector for achieving food safety, conserving environment and reducing expense for agricultural chemicals in Kampong Cham province.

  • 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.
