Country Systems Impact: Cambodia

Traditional development work often results in geographically disparate projects that have limited overlap or collaboration among their activities. Donors find and fund partner organizations to address different aspects of a social issue among different populations. These projects impact the symptoms of issues and support individuals, but they can be less effective in addressing underlying problems.

This report examines a different approach, one that addresses the structural elements needed for sustainable generational change (system strengthening) and invests in multiple partners working collaboratively in a single geographic area (country systems).
