From climate-resilient farming to women-led food systems, this impact report explores the achievements of the AGROW program in rural Cambodia. Implemented by VWB from 2022 to 2024 and funded by Global Affairs Canada, AGROW empowered over 21,000 individuals—primarily women—through sustainable agriculture, animal health services, and a holistic One Health approach.
Danielle Legault, Program Officer at VWB, shares how climate-smart agriculture is transforming lives in Cambodia. Through AGROW and VETS, farmers like Yoeurn Yorn and Chhaem Chhoeurn are improving their livelihoods and leading their communities in building resilience against climate change.
Empowered through AGROW’s training and resources, women like Thary Mork, Ton Sothy, and Ho Penh are transforming Cambodia’s rural communities by embracing sustainable farming, building resilient livelihoods, and improving food security.
San Davy's inspiring transformation from labor migrant to community leader underscores the importance of targeted support, like AGROW in Cambodia, for women in rural economies.
In the heart of rural Cambodia, women are rewriting the narrative of rural livelihoods, harnessing the power of cricket farming to secure brighter futures for themselves and their families.
