We focus on learning through researching, actions, peer-to-peer learning, and enriching their knowledge and skills. Under funding support from International Center for Living Aquatic Resources Management (ICLARM) and the International Institute of Rural Reconstruction (IIRR), Scaling for Impact Science Program under Pathway to Scale in Agrifood systems, Area of Work 2 (Aow2) “Enhance productivity, resilience, and nutrition-sensitive outcomes in Cambodia’s integrated fisheries and agriculture systems through improved management of rice-field fisheries (RFF), Community Fish Refuges (CFRs), and integrated pond-dike cropping systems to support sustainable practices and scaling out.” The project aims to integrate homestead aquaculture and vegetable gardening at households and schools, establish market links, and integrate fish powder into the School Meal Program as part of the next scaling initiative.
