Governance

Accountability and Transparency Action

We believe NGOs should be accountable for their actions and be governed transparently.

On the 23rd of Septem­ber 2011 CRDT was present at the inaug­ur­a­tion cere­mony following being awar­ded the CCC GPP stamp of approval earlier in 2011. The NGO GPP (Non Governmental Organization Governance and Professional Practice), as a pro­ject within the Cooper­a­tion Com­mit­tee for Cam­bodia (CCC), is a col­lect­ive response by NGOs and work­ing in part­ner­ship with the NGO com­munity, donors/funding agen­cies, and other stake­hold­ers to professionalize and strengthen the NGO sec­tor in Cam­bodia by encour­aging and pro­mot­ing NGO account­ab­il­ity and good organizational practices.

CRDT was offi­cially registered with the Min­istry of the Interior in 2005 (see the registration letter here [Khmer]).

Our con­sti­tu­tion and organizational struc­ture is developed to ensure good gov­ernance, account­ab­il­ity and trans­par­ency. Our Board of Dir­ect­ors work in a non-executive capa­city on a vol­un­tary basis. Day-to-day oper­a­tions are over­seen by a man­age­ment com­mit­tee, led by an exec­ut­ive dir­ector. The rest of the team report to the management committee and hold roles as pro­ject staff either in the field offices or at the head office in Kratie Town.
