- Description
-
This project preparatory technical assistance would complement efforts being made to organize communities for natural resource management under the Tonle Sap Environmental Management Project (2002). It would assist communities living within the seasonally inundated area but not directly targeted under the proposed Tonle Sap Sustainable Livelihoods Project (2005). They are poor communities that subsist on fishing, low-yield rainfed agriculture, and extraction of fuelwood and other minor forestry products from within the transition area of the Tonle Sap Biosphere Reserve.

- Objectives and Scope
-
The goal of the technical assistance is sustainable management and conservation of natural resources and biodiversity in the Tonle Sap Basin. Its purpose is to prepare a project to manage and conserve natural resources in and around the transition area of the Tonle Sap Biosphere Reserve, in keeping with biosphere reserve zonation principles, through decentralized and participatory rural development support activities. The ensuing project would support community mobilization for formulation of development plans and implementation of small-scale infrastructure to enhance rural incomes and thereby relieve pressures on the natural resource base of the Tonle Sap Basin. The ensuing project would also research alternative livelihood activities and develop capacity for community-based natural resource management. It would adopt a process approach that strengthens community ownership and capacity through participatory planning, implementation, and monitoring and evaluation.

A team of international consultants associated with domestic consultants will implement the technical assistance (TA) over 9 months. The Project will require an estimated 32 person-months (pm) international and 37 pm domestic services with core expertise in rural development, community development, participatory rural appraisal, ethnic minority issues, gender, design of small-scale hydraulic and other structures, water resources management, agronomy and agro-ecosystem analysis, environmental assessment, financial analysis, and project economics. The consultants will be recruited through a firm in accordance with ADB's Guidelines on the Use of Consultants using the quality-and cost-based selection method and full technical proposals. The rural development specialist will lead the team.
