Overview

Mutual consultation, trust and partnership are the core of our work with the Government of Cambodia, where we have been based since 1994. Our ongoing work in rural development and health and social security responds to the needs of the Cambodian people, supporting them recover from the years of political strife and poverty. To provide a steady foundation during this period of transition, we also work in the area of good governance as a cross-cutting issue, to promote gender equality, political participation, transparency and to counteract corruption. In Phnom Penh, our office works with approximately 160 national professionals and 54 international staff. Our presence in the nation’s capital since 2001 has helped build our close working relationship with the government and has fostered our cooperation with local partners.
