Components
The CMDA project is structured into five major components, each addressing critical aspects of groundwater sustainability:
The CMDA project applies the GEF International Waters technical methodology, moving from a joint Transboundary Diagnostic Analysis (TDA) to a negotiated Strategic Action Programme (SAP) endorsed by both Cambodia and Viet Nam. This process builds a shared scientific foundation, identifies priority transboundary concerns, and develops coordinated actions for sustainable groundwater management. Supporting components on cooperation, legal reform, capacity building, and gender equality ensure that the methodology is not only technically rigorous but also socially inclusive and politically legitimate.
