The Green Growth Potential Assessment (GGPA) is a diagnostic tool developed by the Global Green Growth Institute (GGGI) that consists of a combination of data analysis and stakeholder consultation in order to identify and prioritise a country’s opportunities for green growth. Based on these priorities, specific recommendations are developed, building on scientific evidence and successful examples from other countries as well as considering existing policy documents and technical analysis.
This report presents the findings of the GGPA process for Cambodia, detailing recommendations for each of the green growth priorities. Through data analysis and stakeholder consultation, the report discusses four priorities identified in Cambodia:
- Increasing economic resilience by strengthening adaptive capacity;
- Strengthening competitiveness and improving rural livelihoods through the use of renewable energy;
- Improving natural capital management; and
- Increasing industrial productivity through using resources more efficiently.
