CARE International Cambodia’s Program Strategy is explicitly oriented around supporting impacts for particularly vulnerable and marginalised groups in Cambodia. CI Cambodia recognises that the key to achieving equitable development outcomes lies in shifting deeply rooted, structural underlying causes of poverty which contribute to exclusion and vulnerability of particular groups in society.
CI Cambodia’s Strategy identifies the empowerment of women as a key pathway to equity; linked to two long-term programs with Ethnic Minority Women and Vulnerable Urban Women. CARE International has been working with Cambodians since 1973, with an office in Phnom Penh since 1991 in long-term development programs and emergency relief and rehabilitation assistance. CI Cambodia is currently implementing almost 20 projects in many provinces and Phnom Penh. CI Cambodia’s engagement focuses on dignified work, health, women’s empowerment, prevention of gender-based violence, education, livelihoods, and disaster risk reduction.
