Background

The People Center for Development and Peace (PDP-Center) is a fully localized non-governmental organization (NGO) advocating in Cambodia, supported by the World Bank, Forum Syd, IOGT-NTO Movement and Pact Cambodia. It was established 20th November 2004 by the founders of the Khmer Youth Association to promote freedom, transparency, the rule of law and democracy in Cambodia.

Mission

To strengthen the competences of people living in both urban and rural target communities (especially poor an marginalized men, vulnerable women and youth) and support them to take their own initiatives for community development and being part of the decision making process. In addition, PDP-Center equally promotes the liberal-democratic ideal by taking stance on numerous subjects, including public service delivery, transparency, human rights and health.

Vision

To have a developed, prosperous and harmonious society.

Goal

Our main goal is to address a number of problems existing in Cambodia. This includes poverty, corruption, impunity, loss of land, trafficking of women and children, drug trafficking, lacking healthcare etc. These problems can cause Cambodian people falling into even deeper poverty if they are not remediated. We want to tackle these issues and believe that an effective approach is to gather people with a strong commitment to address and prevent the problems at hand. We will work for a society with respect, tolerance and proper health care and without corruption.
