Project evaluation  Led the evaluation of the NRM component of the USAID-funded HARVEST project, including the community forestry and community fisheries components of the project. Found there are major legal constraints to CBNRM development in Cambodia and that neither the fisheries nor the forestry components were generating any revenues that could cover natural resource management costs. Of over 400 community-based natural forest management initiatives in Cambodia, none of them were developing sustainable timber harvest as an option, although young, secondary forests are filled with regeneration of commercial species. 2013
