Public-Social-Private Partnerships for Ecologically-Sound Agriculture and Resilient Livelihood

Ministry of Environment (MoE) in collaboration with FAO Cambodia is implementing a project, namely “Public-Social-Private Partnerships for Ecologically-Sound Agriculture and Resilient Livelihood in Northern Tonle Sap Basin (PEARL)”. PEARL aims to enhance climate change resilience of smallholder farmers and local communities in the Northern Tonle Sap Basin (NTSB) by promoting climate-resilient, higher-value, inclusive and sustainable agriculture through a value-chain approach built on effective public-social-private partnerships. The project is structured under three interconnected outcomes targeting 450,000 smallholder farmers and value chain actors and one million indirect beneficiaries in four Provinces (Oddar Meanchey, Preah Vihear, Siem Reap, Kampong Thom), 24 districts, 124 farmer organizations (104 ACs/Associations/Groups, 14 CPAs, 6 CFs).
