Job Description

Cambodia‘s coastal fishing communities are amongst the most vulnerable, due largely to high dependence on natural resources, direct exposure to climate vectors (i.e. storms, sea level rise, and changing rainfall), overall poverty, remoteness, and marginalization. Women have even less adaptive options available to them, as traditionally they have less influence over the decision-making processes, including those related to climate adaptation. The project will build on the baseline of existing policy, legal, and technical measures and investments and provide additional financing to generate effective adaptation models and establish support frameworks that empower vulnerable communities, as the anticipated challenges and costs to address them will increase with climate change.

  • Component 1: Strengthening policy coordination and capacity development for an adaptive enabling environment
  • Component 2: Sustainable Ecosystem Management for coastal resilience
  • Component 3: Fishing Community Adaptation Capacity Strengthened
  • Component 4: Knowledge Management

The project is funded by Global Environmental Facility (GEF) with an amount of USD 4,350,000.00 covering 5 years period and is being implemented by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, Ministry of Environment and Fisheries Administration (FiA) of the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries (MAFF).
