A new Landesa report provides insights about the climate change vulnerability of Cambodia’s coastal Community Fisheries. The report seeks to provide key insights to enhance community members’ understanding of their susceptibility to climate change and highlight the importance of enacting plans to strengthen their resilience.
This Learning Brief, co-authored with Parliamentary Centre of Asia, highlights findings from a baseline survey and qualitative assessments Landesa’s local partners carried out in five Community Fisheries (CFis) in Cambodia that are part of a Coastal Livelihoods and Mangroves project. The brief describes gender dynamics in CFi participation and management, notes root causes of inequities related to social norms and local beliefs, and provides insights into effective interventions and pathways for strengthening CFis, livelihoods, and mangrove ecosystem health through gender equality.
Blue Carbon: Assessing the Mitigation Potential of Strengthening Coastal Community Fisheries’ Tenure
A new Landesa report shows how strengthening local rights to manage coastal resources in Cambodia can protect livelihoods, restore mangrove forests, and fight climate change. Many community fishery organizations face challenges like unclear boundaries and limited control over their resources, putting both ecosystems and livelihoods at risk. This report shares findings from carbon studies at two pilot sites, highlighting how strengthening land rights can help expand Cambodia’s efforts to reduce carbon emissions and meet its climate goals.
