Historique
The Cambodia Climate Change Alliance (CCCA) - Phase 2 is an initiative led by the Ministry of Environment and supported by the European Union, Sweden and UNDP. The overall objective is to strengthen national systems and capacities to support the coordination and implementation of Cambodia’s climate change response, contributing to a greener, low carbon, climate-resilient, equitable, sustainable and knowledge-based society.
CCCA operates a grant facility funding climate change adaptation and mitigation projects in the field. Window 1 of the grant facility provides support to demonstration projects implemented by Government agencies in line with their Climate Change Action Plans (CCAP), while Window 3 funds innovative projects from both civil society and the private sector. A total of USD 4.45 million have been allocated to 22 projects between 2015 and 2019 (14 under Window 1 and 8 under window 3). Projects cover a wide range of activities and sectors. More detailed information is available at:

and http://camclimate.org.kh/en/documents-and-media/library/category/143-2015-grant-window-3.html
As the current phase of CCCA is due to end in June 2019 and most projects in the field will be closed by March 2019, CCCA is now looking to hire an experienced consultant to extract key lessons learnt from the projects and document their impact on beneficiaries, through the development of knowledge products.
