This project strengthens the implementation of sustainable integrated agriculture development and mine action in support of poverty alleviation. <p> The project aims to reduce poverty among poor and vulnerable men and women farmers in up to six mine-affected districts in northwest Cambodia by increasing food security and income. The project contributes to good governance by strengthening the decentralized administrative structures delivering agriculture extensions (including micro-finance) and mine action services. A key feature of the project is the mainstreaming of the goal of gender equality in the implementation processes. <p> This project strengthens responsive and integrated agriculture extensions and micro-finance services that increase production and income for vulnerable farmers, address gender inequalities, and improve quality of life. It also improves community-based, participatory and gender responsive land use planning and mine risk reduction programs that reduce accidents, release land and contribute to agriculture development.
