ADD Cambodia Programme has been a long journey in Cambodia for 15 years now. It is well known as the core right-based organization for development of people with disabilities.
Our key strategies contributed to the Govern- ment’s Development Strategy, elaborating the poverty reduction agenda, providing framework for support by development partners and with a comprehensive set of indicators to monitor progress towards achieving Cambodia’s MDGs. Our key strategy also meets the core principles of working together includes mainstreaming disability across development programme, ensuring DPOs have the resources to empower disabled people to engage in monitoring the UN Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities, and the law to promote and protect the rights of persons with disabilities.
