| Sumario: | The Sustainable Aquaculture and Community Fish Refuge (SAFR) project,
which falls under the BMZ Special Initiative “Transformation of Agricultural and
Food Systems,” aims to reduce poverty and hunger. Under the BMZ initiative,
the Global Programme Sustainable Fisheries and Aquaculture was launched
to improve the availability of fish products for food insecure people and
increase employment and incomes. Thanks to contributions from the SAFR, the
Cambodia Fisheries Administration was able to meet its goal of establishing
1200 community fish refuges (CFRs) to increase fish production, create jobs
and generate income from environmentally friendly rice fields for food insecure
people. To achieve this, WorldFish implemented the project CFR component
(SAFR-CFR) to establish and improve the 21 CFRs in Kampong Thom. The project
lasted from December 2020 to March 2024.
