8 Feed the Future Innovation Labs Innovation Labs draw on the expertise of top U.S. universities and developing country research institutions to tackle some of the world s greatest challenges in agriculture and food security. 24 Labs, managed by US universities
9 Innovation Labs around the world

15 Agricultural Livelihoods Neak Sre- Rice People Fewer options for depending on agriculture
16 Social Change: Out migration Development of the country has been slow recovering from the devastation of civil war Over half of Cambodian s are under the age of 25 and only 20 percent live in urban areas People who have received high school education find it difficult to effectively use their skills and knowledge in agrarian environments. Rural population is migrating to urban areas
17 Rural to Urban Migration three-quarters of both women and men migrants identified employment as one of the main reasons why they migrated.
18 Stresses of Agriculture frequency of environmental distress distance from markets low profit typically attained through animal husbandry and agriculture risk perceived to be involved in rice or crop intensification village-based livelihood strategies as impossible or unwise
19 UTIA in Cambodia Two visits in 2016 to gather data Baseline quantitative household survey Identify gender-sensitive SI technologies and practices in rice and horticulture value chains Identify enabling conditions and social networks for women to fully participate in horticultural and rice-based food production Build capacity in local agricultural institutions, NGOs, and international universities and research institutes, to scale up and out innovations in gender and ecologically sensitive SI.
20 Next Steps Analyze quantitative baseline data Return to Cambodia-Dec/January Qualitative data gathering: Interviews, Focus groups, community activities Trial SI technologies with demonstration sites Work with farmers to trial various techniques Adapt modules for educational programs
