Review of Climate Change and Water-Related Diseases in Cambodia and Findings From Stakeholder Knowledge Assessments.

[typhoid]

This project aims to increase the resilience of Cambodian communities to the health risks posed by climate change -related impacts on water-related diseases . There are a number of water-related diseases that are present in Cambodia and are likely to be susceptible to climate change . These include diarrheal diseases , typhoid fever , leptospirosis , melioidosis , viral hepatitis , and schistosomiasis . Certain subsectors of Cambodia 's population may be more vulnerable than others with respect to climate change impacts on water and health , including agricultural workers and residents of flood-and drought-prone areas . The current level of understanding on the part of health professionals and other key stakeholders in Cambodia regarding the risks posed by climate change on water-sensitive diseases is relatively low . Strategies by which this understanding might be strengthened are suggested .
