Sumario:The LASED project has played an important role in supporting the livelihoods of Cambodia’s rural poor. Its interventions have included the installation of rural infrastructure and the provision of funds for farmers. The project has social, economic and environmental objectives, and specific safeguards were developed to cover all activities – especially those involving indigenous communities. However, not all safeguards have been fully developed, and the guidelines which were prepared have not always been followed. A detailed analysis was carried out to inform policymakers and development practitioners that further steps needed to be taken.
