    Organisation, founded in the Netherlands in 1965. SNV operates in more than 25 developing
    countries in Asia, Latin America, and Africa. For detailed information on SNV visit:
    www.snv.org.

    Working in Cambodia since 2005, SNV implements projects in the agriculture, energy, and
    water sanitation and hygiene (WASH) sectors. Using market-based approaches, we emphasize
    environmental sustainability and inclusive development. We lower the barriers to economic
    and social development and promote local ownership. SNV provides tailor-made and
    sustainable interventions that are effective at raising incomes, providing meaningful
    employment opportunities, and improving access to and coverage of basic services. Our
    interventions acknowledge the critical importance of improved climate change resilience and
    mitigation strategies to achieve sustainable change. Our work is aligned with the country’s
    national development priorities and strategies. We work in close collaboration with the royal
    government, civil society, and private sector. Our multi-national team of experts works from
    our national office in Phnom Penh.

    Smoke Free Village


    The use of biomass for cooking fuel and associated smoke exposure contribute to serious
    health problems, leading to the deaths of 14,000 people in Cambodia per year. Many more
    lives, mainly those of women and children, are affected by smoke-related health conditions
    that reduce overall quality and length of life. Further, the smoke emissions from open fires
    contribute to greenhouse gases that are responsible for climate change. Finally, cooking is
    strongly connected to livelihoods, gender, and inequalities at the household level.

    The Smoke-Free-Free (SFV) initiative started in 2020 in Cambodia and has rolled out in
    multiple countries (including Laos, Mozambique, and Nepal) under various funding sources.

    Together with our partner Energizing Development (EnDev) we promote awareness, demand
    creation, and capacity building in local institutions to provide behavior change communication
    for clean cooking. The Smoke-Free Village approach aligns with Cambodia Basic Energy, NDC,
    and health plans to prevent non-communicable diseases and builds on the approach for
    community-led total sanitation. The SFV is a gender-based approach with the Commune
    Councils for Women and Children as the main partner to encourage villages to collectively
    eliminate smoke from burning wood. The initiative stimulates demand for clean stoves and
    fuels and triggers suppliers to sell more of their products and services in villages. SNV runs
    the activities with different stakeholders, aiming to cement an enabling ecosystem where the
    government ignites demand and the private sector offers the supply.
