Project context, objectives and description
GGGI Cambodia has supported government and city authorities in Cambodia in developing a “Sustainable City Plan for Phnom Penh” (approved) and a “Sustainable City Strategic Plan for Secondary Cities” (in the final stages of approval). The Plans propose a holistic concept of green urban economic growth, social inclusion and resilience – addressing a broad range of urban issues including energy, transport, building and public space, solid waste, drainage and wastewater.
GGGI Cambodia will support implementation of these plans through different means:
i.) Policy and investment advice on sanitation, waste management, energy efficiency and waste to energy (see the other KH PINs and project ideas, core and earmarked) in line with the sustainable city plans.
ii.) Capacity Development support to enable cities to take forward the implementation of sustainable city plans independently.
One of the main challenges raised by the government counterparts is the lack of knowledge and capacity of government officials, particularly city officials, on green growth and green city development, planning and implementation; thereby, causing difficulty for the plans to be implemented effectively and efficiently.
The project objective is to improve knowledge and enhance the capacity of municipal officials of Phnom Penh and the seven targeted secondary cities to undertake green city development and implementation and promote green city investment projects development. This project is aligned with IO3. Improved multi-directional knowledge sharing and learning to empower local and external agents necessary to drive green growth processes in partner governments.
The GCCD project is in line with the NCSD’s long-term strategic planning framework 2018-2023 and its vision and mission to build the capacity and extend knowledge of government officials in sustainable/green city development. The proposed GCCD project aims to promote the implementation of the Sustainable City Development Plan of Phnom Penh and of the Seven Secondary Cities.
