The National Energy Efficiency Policy contains measures to reduce Cambodia's energy consumption by boosting energy efficiency. It sets country-wide targets for reducing energy consumption as well as sector-specific targets.

This Plan includes actions to enhance climate resilience infrastructure, healthcare and safety practices in response to disasters related to climate change and relevant teacher training in schools including in preschools and childcare centres.

The Circular Strategy on Environment 2023-2028 serves as a roadmap, outlining the priority actions with the aim of ensuring integrity, climate resilience, environmental sustainability, and promoting a green economy. The overarching goal is realising the Pentagonal strategy’s aim for Cambodia to be carbon-neutral, with 60 percent of forest cover by 2050.&nbsp;
Three strategy has three angles, to enhance policy, establish digital administration, and broaden extension in order to achieve the aim of
<ol>
<li>Being clean (controlling pollution, improving environmental impact assessment, and modernise the pollution measurement system)</li>
<li>Going green (sustainable management of protected areas, enhancing livelihood of local communities, and intensifying the planting of trees)</li>
<li>Being sustainable (cooperation, coordination, and compliance)&nbsp;</li>
</ol>

The 2023–2028 RGC Pentagonal Strategy Phase I delineates the fundamental initiatives that shall be executed over the subsequent five years to effectuate a transformation of Cambodia into a high-income economy by 2050. Initiatives include strengthening environmental sustainability and climate change response, including establishing legal frameworks and/or roadmaps fordeveloping public financial products, such as state securities, state green securities, state climate securities, and state social securities, to promote public investtnent and prioritised sectors; research and development of climate-resilient crops, animal breeds and aquaculture; and boosting water infrastructure to respond to climate change.

The PDP outlines a comprehensive long-term plan for Cambodia's power sector that includes forecasts of demand, expansion of generation, and a plan for transmission and distribution from 2022 until 2040. The plan will oversee a rapid expansion of renewable energy resources.

The Code provides a comprehensive framework for managing and protecting Cambodia’s natural resources. This code emphasises the importance of sustainable development and integrating climate change considerations into national policies and practices. It contains a section to strengthen and improve capacity for climate change adaptation and resilience and greenhouse gas emissions reduction, by delineating the roles and duties of the ministry responsible for environment and natural resources; the policies, strategies and plans responding to climate change; the development of the financing framework and mobilisation of finance; and climate chnage information and reporting.

The NSDP, promulgated by law, is a planning document detailing Cambodia's strategy to achieve a wide range of development targets over the period 2019-2023. These include a curbing of deforestation and a strenghtening of renewable energy sources. The document states the following goals with regard to climate change:&nbsp; Decentralization&nbsp; of&nbsp; functions&nbsp; and&nbsp; resources&nbsp; to&nbsp; sub-national&nbsp; levels&nbsp; to&nbsp; strengthen ownership in order to ensure the sustainability of environmental and natural resources</div><div>Promoting climate change resilience and facilitate the progress of building a society&nbsp; that releases low carbon.</div><div>Developing&nbsp; a&nbsp; roadmap&nbsp; for&nbsp; implementing&nbsp; the&nbsp; National Determined&nbsp; Contributions (NDC) for the&nbsp; implementation&nbsp; of&nbsp; the&nbsp; United&nbsp; Nations&nbsp; Framework&nbsp; Convention&nbsp; on Climate Change

The objective of this law is to regulate disaster management in the Kingdom of Cambodia.&nbsp; More precisely, it deals with 1) Prevention, adaptation and mitigation in the pre-disaster period, due to natural or human-made causes, 2) Emergency response during the disaster, and 3) Recovery in the post-disaster period. &nbsp; &nbsp;The Law further creates the National Committee for Disaster Management. Sub-committees at national and regional levels will ensure the completion of the Committee's missions. On July 22, 2020, the National Committee for Disaster Management launched the Platform for Real-time Impact and Situation Monitoring (PRISM).
