Abstract/Summary
This infographic highlights the challenges and opportunities in implementing climate-resilient and inclusive Water Safety Plans (WSP) in Cambodia. It outlines barriers, including low community participation, financial constraints, limited knowledge, and gender-based inequalities, that hinder effective WSP adoption. At the same time, it presents practical recommendations including inclusive engagement, capacity building, financial support, cooperation with stakeholders, and gender equality integration. By linking WSPs to climate resilience, the infographic emphasises the importance of safe, sustainable, and equitable water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) services. It underscores the urgency of addressing climate risks to protect vulnerable communities and strengthen national resilience.
