With a third of Cambodia’s population in some of form of poverty, the vast majority of people
depend on agriculture for their primary livelihood. However, household well-being is severely
affected by limited basic education, exorbitant health care costs, and uncertain food security.
Worsening this situation is the high 72%1 rate of open defecation which costs the country over 400
million USD in losses annually2, despite studies describing a 200% rate of return upon a USD 1
investment3 .
