| description |
Urbanization presents an enormous
opportunity for Cambodia. As has been demonstrated in
countries around the world, urbanization is a driving force
for growth and poverty reduction. Given Cambodia’s
relatively early stage of urbanization, there is still an
important opportunity to shape the future direction of
urbanization. To positively shape the future of Cambodian
cities, strong institutions for urban planning and
management, collaboration across agencies, and a sustained
commitment to the importance of principles of sustainability
and inclusion will be needed. This report provides a summary
of key issues related to urbanization in Cambodia, with a
particular focus on Phnom Penh given its role as the
country’s largest and most prosperous city. Section one
provides context on urbanization, institutional and
financial arrangements, urban planning, urban service
delivery, and sustainability and inequality. Section two
focuses in on three underlying constraints to efficient
urbanization and section three includes priorities for Phnom
Penh as a competitive, sustainable, and inclusive city. |
