Implementation Strategy

CRDT’s Implementation Strategy is a manual written to specify what CRDT should do to achieve the Mission of “A Cambodia free from poverty and environmental degradation” and the Vision of “sustainably improving food security, incomes, and living standards of subsistence rural communities, in support of environmental conservation throughout Cambodia”. In summary, our strategy is to work with poor communities according to their assessed needs. We will normally work through a group based in each community. We will facilitate, as required, vocational capacity building, financial mobilization and market and business development to improve beneficiaries’ incomes, either by helping them to earn more from their own businesses, or to get jobs in other community-based enterprises. The incomes supported must be sustainable: that means they must be viable in the long term and not degrade the environment. CRDT also contributes to conservation and higher living standards, as required, by educating beneficiaries to improve and safeguard the local environment and by improving access to water and sanitation facilities. Each of the main types of implementation activity has a separate section in this document. We will work with partner organizations in areas in which we do not have expertise, such as health, law enforcement and conservation.
