Knowledge, Attitude, and Practices (KAP) on Climate Change

The KAP studies are conducted every 5 years with the purpose of informing the design of future awareness raising efforts and of mechanisms and interventions to engage different groups of Cambodia’s society to be effective agents of change in responding to climate change challenges. Based on KAP3, there is still limited understanding of the term ‘climate change’ among Cambodians. While nearly three-quarters (72%) of respondents said they had heard of the phrase, only one-third (33%) said they knew what it meant. On the other hands, Cambodians reported that they are well-prepared for extreme weather such as heatwaves, storms, droughts or floods and they are very or fairly willing to make changes in the future. Nearly all Cambodians said they were taking at least one action.

Nearly three-quarter (72%) of Cambodians have heard of the term ‘Climate Change’
