Partnership for Development in Kampuchea
A Cambodian society where people live in harmony, self-reliance, gender equality and no poverty.
Partnership for Development of Kampuchea (Padek) is a Cambodian non-government organisation working to assist disadvantaged rural communities to improve their livelihoods and quality of life.
Our goal is to improve the living conditions of the most vulnerable and extreme poor households by supporting community savings, livelihood enhancement, disaster resilience and people’s participation in governance and gender equity.
At Padek we focus on working with poor people to develop and implement projects that respond to the needs of their community and directly benefits the most vulnerable households. We recognise that ‘Capacity building’ is no longer a sufficient response on its own to community development our approach is based on a combination of capacity building, problem analysis and understanding the underlying issues to ensure appropriate support is provided to communities. By providing opportunities for the rural poor to develop their knowledge, skills and resources, Padek’s work is helping to bring about positive change in the lives of poor people in rural areas. Padek currently works in 3 main project areas: community savings; livelihood enhancement; and disaster resilience.
