Consultancy (2 Lots) To Develop Damnok Toek’s Five-Year Strategic Planning Process 2026-2030

Announcement Description

Damnok Toek (DT) is a Cambodian-based NGO specialising in disability, child protection, education and safe migration. DT works in provincial locations in Poipet, Neak Loeung and Kep to ensure the most vulnerable children and their families have their basic needs met and can access to their full potentials.

DT’s first project, a home for vulnerable and marginalized street children in Neak Loeung (southeast Cambodia), was created in 1997 by the Swiss NGO Goutte d’eau – a child support network (GEcsn) at the request of the Ministry of Social Affairs (MoSVY) and UNICEF. Since then, DT is operating also in Poipet and Kep and has a small Head Office in Phnom Penh.

DT currently takes care of 700 children and young adults daily and supports 1’700 children and their families through its projects integrating prevention, protection, rehabilitation and reintegration. To fulfill all these activities DT employs around 110 staff members.

DT' programs have always thrived to respond to the needs on the ground and it has been key for the organization to adapt its activities to the changing Cambodian context while putting the needs of the children, youth, and families first.

DT, as an organisation, has also evolved a lot over the past years, from programming to organisational governance, while socio-economic situations of Cambodia has also changed significantly. As a result, DT identifies the need to develop a strategic plan 2026-2030 which provide a roadmap for the organisation for the next five years. To support this long-term vision for the organisation, DT is looking for an expert consultant or team to support the development of a comprehensive organisational strategy.
