USAID Morodok Baitang is an activity to conserve Cambodia’s unique biodiversity, reduce land-based sources of carbon emission, and improve accountable and equitable economic development. This project will foster sustainable, equitable economic growth that contributes to Cambodia’s national development goals. Toward this end, the activity has three objectives: Objective 1: To improve biophysical conditions of target areas by partnering with natural resource-dependent communities, private sector actors, and other development partners to enhance biodiversity conservation and low emissions development. Objective 2: To increase economic benefits for natural resource-dependent communities from conservation-friendly, climate-smart, and socially equitable market systems with private sector actors. Objective 3: To strengthen natural resource governance practices through the inclusion of natural resource-dependent communities, smallholder producers, and their private sector and civil society partners in the decision-making process.
