Summary project

By January 2025, API Development Consulting successfully delivered an Advocacy Capacity Strengthening Training Course for selected staff of ChildFund Cambodia. The training enhanced participants’ knowledge and skills in integrating advocacy into project implementation. It strengthened their understanding of key advocacy concepts, processes, and approaches, while equipping them with practical tools to engage effectively with policymakers, manage advocacy risks, and measure the impact of their efforts in alignment with organizational objectives.

API Development Consulting worked closely with ChildFund Cambodia’s HR team to design and deliver a customized three-day training program. The course covered core topics including advocacy concepts and processes, goals and scope of advocacy, advocacy approaches, do-no-harm principles, policy and government engagement, integrating advocacy into project development, advocacy risk management, and impact measurement. The consultant also prepared all training materials, addressed emerging challenges during the sessions, and produced a comprehensive final report upon completion.

Overall, the training strengthened staff capacity to lead effective advocacy initiatives, enhanced project impact, and contributed to advancing positive policy change.
