HEKS/EPER (Swiss Church Aid) and Caritas Switzerland Cambodia are implementing the Nurture project with support of the Swiss Agency for Development Cooperation. All three organizations have long experience in Cambodia and well-established working relationships with the relevant government partners and agreed to work together at least until end of 2026, probably until end of 2030.
HEKS/EPER Cambodia has been working in Cambodia since the 1980s. It currently works across parts of eight provinces in Cambodia applying a market system development approach focusing on the promotion of inclusive and sustainable agriculture, climate change resilience and food security, and securing access to land. HEKS/EPER Cambodia is also an active member of the national NGO network, NGO Forum and participates in a number of thematic networks relevant to this project.
Caritas Switzerland engagement in Cambodia started in 2001 with a thematic focus on migration and climate change. It has implemented a community based DRR project in 50 villages in Banteay Meanchey Province from 2014 to 2021. DRR Village Committees and participatory community-based planning, culminating in Community Action Plans and active FWUCs, were key activities of that project.
The Nurture Project addresses climate resilience of smallholder farmers using a systemic approach addressing a range of problems associated with financial, technical, institutional and informational gaps, which are preventing farmers from transitioning to greater levels of resilience. The project’s overall goal is that:” Vulnerable smallholder farming households and their communities are more resilient to climate change and have increased incomes through climate proofing of agroecological farming systems.
