Water Voice in Cambodia

Water Voice Project was one of the activities of the 3rd World Water Forum in 2003. The objective was to create a database of opinions, comments, and ideas on water issues from the grassroots people in line with the 3rd World Water Forum principle: "Participation of all people, not only the professionals, but also the grassroots from the remote areas". The Water Voices were collected by the Water Voice Messengers from over the world and were entered into the Water Voice Database. This data was an important input as a basis for all discussions pertaining to the 3rd World Water Forum, through the Virtual Water Forum, World Water Action Report, Regional Conferences and other Water?related International Conferences. . The Mekong River Commission cooperated with the Secretariat of the 3rd World Water Forum as Water Voice Partner Organisation. Ms Solieng Mak, Mr Kamoto Minoru, and Mr Chea chan Thou (Ministry of Environment, Cambodia) collected the water voices in Cambodia as a Water Voice Messenger. Fortunately, Ms Solieng Mak got the prize at the 3rd World Water Forum for her productive effort to collect and analyse the voices. . This document consists of 225 voices collected during March 2002 to February 2003 from the 22 provinces in Cambodia. The 3rd World Water Forum completed successfully in March 2003. However, our effort to understanding and overcoming water problems is succeeding continuously. This document is the milestones of the effort. We hope it will contribute to make the better future of Cambodian people. . After this First Collection, we plan for the Second Collection during May 2003 and May 2004.
