SUMMARY OF CAPRED
The Cambodia-Australia Partnership for Resilient Economic Development (CAPRED) is Australia's flagship bilateral economic development program in Cambodia. It will focus on economic recovery and resilience.
The Facility supports Cambodia to implement important economic reforms to support the country's economic transition. These efforts aim to encourage more productive and inclusive public and private investment, promoting a resilient, inclusive, and sustainable economy.
CAPRED interventions fall under three technical domains including: Agriculture and Agro-processing; Trade, Investment and Enterprise Development and Infrastructure Development; and three Cross-Cutting components comprising: Gender Equality, Disability and Social Inclusion (GEDSI), Climate Resilient initiatives, and policy support.
