Testimonials
Vuthy Bun
Kdei Karona, Phnom Penh
“The Mobilising Support Training Course helped us acquire more advocacy skills and start advocating at the national level, which is something we had never done before. So, after the training, Kdei Karona was able to directly address the Ministry of Education in order to promote gender equality. As a result, our programme was included in the national curriculum.”
Samnang Ork
Councillor in the Santuk district, province of Kampong Thom
“Access to information is crucial for local communities, such as the forestry and fishing villages. If they know more about how things work and about what the rules are, they can be better citizens and adhere more to the law.”
Romorm Leap
Youth from the province of Ratanakiri
“In the training about requesting information from authorities, I learnt how to make such requests without fear. I believe it is the duty of the officials to provide an answer and respond to our needs. Once there is a clear law about this, it will be easier to get the required information, because this right will be defined better.”
Pry Phally Phuong
BCV, Phnom Penh
“After I attended the Local Fundraising course, my soft skills definitely improved, and I could use them in order to develop small projects and address some issues in our target provinces. For example, while conducting meetings with commune councillors and other authorities, I have applied what I learnt both during this course and during the Mobilising Support Training. This gave me more courage to raise issues, talk about our needs and request clear answers.”
