What we do

We put women and girls in the center because we know that we cannot overcome poverty until all people have equal rights.

Women are a vital part of CARE's community-based efforts to improve access to inclusive education, involvement in decision making and expanding economic opportunity for all.

Education & Work

With over 20 years experience of working with Indigenous and marginalized communities, we know education and the right to work are the most powerful tools in overcoming extreme poverty.

Our Approach

Strengthening Gender Equality and Women’s Voice

Informed by CARE’s Gender Equality Framework, CARE Cambodia works to bring about improvements in women’s agency and capacity, the personal and power relations within which women live their lives, and the structures that
surround and condition their choices.

Inclusive Governance

Guided by CARE’s Governance Programming Framework, CARE Cambodia promotes inclusive governance through stronger civil society representing the rights of women and girls and advocating for inclusion of interests and priorities of women and girls in the development and implementation of policies, laws and delivery of services.

Increasing Resilience

CARE Cambodia works to strengthen women and girls’ capacities to respond to effects of climate change and disasters, and ensure risks and underlying causes of vulnerabilities are managed across all humanitarian and development interventions.
