Development and Partnership in Action

Partnership Programme

We have supported this programme since 2001. It mentors and coaches 13 local Cambodian Community Based Organisations (CBOs) and NGOs to ensure participation of women in development; foster organisational capacity and programme quality; and improve their ability to work with local government. In 2010, the partnership programme focused on gender issues and food security. Eleven partner organisations have gender policies. Eight participate in gender networks from local to national levels and monitor women’s situations such as in health, domestic violence and its intervention. Four partner organisations work on natural resource management.
