Cambodia is ranked among the top 10 countries most vulnerable to Climate Change. This is not only due to climate risks, but also to lack of capacity to adapt and respond.  Eighty percent of the population lives in rural areas with limited knowledge, infrastructure and opportunities; and more than 70 percent rely on agriculture that is heavily sensitive to climate change, putting the country’s economic and social development at risk.

During 2010 I worked on assignment by the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), to produce a photo archive on Climate Change for the production of the Cambodian Human Development Report 2011. The reportage included more than 20 different topics and was accompanied by interviews and small feature stories.
