SOUTH EAST ASIA

We conducted research in the Upper Mekong Delta in Cambodia, the Chao Phraya delta and Bang Pakong river basin in Thailand and the Ayeyarwady delta in Myanmar. We adopted an interdisciplinary approach that linked agricultural economics, critical irrigation and water studies, physical and human geography, political ecology, science and technology studies and anthropology of development. Research was co-designed and implemented by researchers from CIRAD and IRD, higher education institutes (e.g. the Royal University of Agriculture in Cambodia) and Non-Governmental Organizations (e.g. the Thailand Water Partnership in Thailand and the Irrigation Service Center in Cambodia) in two of the case study countries.
