Integrated River Basin Management of the Mekong Basin Tributary for Adaptation to Climate Change

The regional implications of this proposed project are critical as the Mekong River basin has been facing significant change with a critical resource for the countries and target communities. By improving watershed management in the Prek Thnot Basin, this project can contribute to the broader efforts to promote sustainable and integrated management of the Lower Mekong River basin.

These factors impact people, animals, property, infrastructure, and socio-economics. Implementation intervention and iniviative in river basin management is crucial to mitigate these impacts and provide policy recommendations for improving sustainable river basin management.
