Church World Service Cambodia 2009 First Semester Report

Executive summary Executive summaries are usually just that: business briefings. Perhaps we need to rethink the way we have been speaking about development. As we talk about programs and outputs and impacts, we may be cushioning ourselves from the reality of the dire poverty we are trying to alleviate. This is understandable; it is difficult to face. However, it is helpful to remind ourselves constantly that absolute poverty is far more difficult to experience than it is to witness. We are at a crossroads at CWS Cambodia. As we enter the fifth year of our Seven Year Strategic Directions, our work is becoming increasingly innovative, comprehensive and effective (there is a growing sense of enthusiasm among our staff), but at the same time we face a looming and substantial funding shortfall at the end of this reporting period, one that could force us to scale back delivery of assistance to many villages in rural Cambodia where we, or our partners, are the only safety net for some of the region’s poorest people. In this reporting period, for example, we began implementing a 15-month Community Based Disaster Risk Management in 40 isolated and under served villages along the Thai border in Northwest Cambodia. In the previous reporting period, we received a Gold Medal from the Royal Government of Cambodia for our achievements in implementing CBDRM. Now, however, we are implementing the project through three highly committed Cambodian partner NGOs in collaboration with district and provincial offices of the Cambodian Red Cross. This transfer of knowledge and skills is at the heart of how we work. It fosters independence and helps free families and communities from abject poverty. Already, 81 Red Cross Volunteers have received training on how to effectively prepare for natural disasters and to mitigate impacts resulting from them. The training has extended to village leaders, commune, district and provincial officials. Villages are already drafting and implementing their own plans, with assistance from CWS Cambodia’s Emergency Response unit and our Cambodian partners. On the other side of the country, along the border with Vietnam, our Water and Sanitation Cooperation project is due to phase out of 59 villages in Svay Rieng province at the end of this reporting period. This project has had remarkable results in reducing illness, improving nutrition and lifting incomes (through home gardening, for example) in villages where the rate of access to safe water is among the lowest in the region. Residents say the phase out is happening too soon. Many have expressed alarm. They say they need more wells, water filters and latrines. The World Bank agrees with them. Only 2% of rural residents in the province have access to latrines, it reported last year. At the rate rural Cambodians are gaining access to sanitation, it will take the country 150 years to achieve universal coverage, the report estimated. Numerous other reports over the past few years have made the same, or similar, points. Access to safe water remains a luxury in many areas of rural Cambodia, despite the countless wells that have been installed over the past decade. The problem with many, however, is that they don’t work or when the pump breaks no one in the village knows how to fix it. This is one example of why village-based development is both effective and sustainable. Residents lead the process by, for example, deciding where to place a well, helping construct it, learning how to maintain it. We will continue to implement this model. Moreover, our focus on assisting the absolute poor will continue. This is not only an ethical imperative, but an approach that works. When residents of a village see their poorest neighbors become self sufficient they start paying close attention and opening their minds to new ways of thinking. As is noted in the following pages, residents of villages in Kompong Thom (in the heart of Cambodia) have started home gardening on their own initiative after seeing how vulnerable families used them to generate income and become self sufficient.

iii

Government officials have also noticed the effectiveness of our approach. Our holistic partner, Kumnit Thmey (New Ideas) Organization, for example, was invited to expand into a new commune in Oddar Meanchey after officials noticed that the villages it was implementing integrated community development in were developing at a faster rate than the villages in their commune. At CWS Cambodia we are constantly on the lookout for new ideas and new partners, but we remain deeply committed to the humanitarian values that continue to prove to be the most effective foundation for genuine and sustainable development, which is time consuming, requires in-depth knowledge of communities, intensive capacity building and an integrated approach. At its best, this is a joint learning experience. There are often, however, barriers to development that must be removed before it can occur. These include the lack of physical and social infrastructure, and, in many areas of Cambodia, landmines. The Royal Government of Cambodia is in the process of seeking a 10 year extension to the Ottawa Treaty to provide it with more time to remove the millions of landmines that remain along the Thai border. CWS Cambodia works in villages where these devices continue to pose a lethal hazard. Although the number of Cambodians who are maimed or killed by landmines has thankfully plummeted, these devices continue to trap households and entire villages in poverty because they obstruct land that could be used for farming. Funding for our humanitarian demining program in Malai District ran out last year. The work is very far from complete; unless it continues residents will remain trapped in poverty and reliant on foreign aid to feed their families. The following report provides a detailed account of the immense amount of work we have undertaken over the past six months, as individuals, teams, with partners, and as an organization. Our achievements and challenges are described in detail in the hope that this will provide an accurate understanding of the very dynamic way we work, as well as a sense of our commitment, creativity, enthusiasm and determination to ensure maximum effectiveness. The report is a joint effort by staff from every project. They are not native English speakers, but their enthusiasm and concern shines through. The diversity of our work may give a misleading impression. It may appear that our many projects lack coherence. This is not the case. Mutually respectful relationships, ingenuity, honesty, gender equality, peace building, optimism, and transparency are among the values that are carefully embedded in all the projects we implement then hand over to likeminded groups who continue to expand and develop them.

1.1. DIRECT SERVICES PROGRAM

Introduction

The Direct Services Program (DSP) office continues to adapt to the changing realities of our diverse programs as well as the constraints we face. During this reporting period, for example, our Village Based Community Development Project was divided into two projects (Kompong Thom VBCD and Preah Vihear VBCD). This has allowed us to improve the scope and effectiveness of our work in Preah Vihear, where few international NGOs have a presence, and CWS Cambodia is pioneering VBCD. DSP staff assisted and supervised the smooth separation of the two projects, focusing on work plans and operation budgets so that field work would not be interrupted. The DSP office was established in 2006 to solve coordination and communication problems faced by the Community Development Program and Strategic Support Unit. The solution was to merge these two groups at our central office in Phnom Penh. As a result, we have been able to streamline and strengthen the provision of technical and managerial support in the field. Our aim of delivering the most effective and sustainable solutions to meet the most urgent needs faced by rural Cambodians, especially those isolated in poverty, has been enhanced. The office’s ten staff members (three women) provide technical support and guidance to all field work and programs, from VBCD in Kompong Thom and Preah Vihear provinces, to our Water and Sanitation (WatSan) Cooperation Project in Svay Rieng Province. They also ensure that cross-sectoral programs (Disaster Mitigation, Emergency Response and Preparedness (ERP) and Peace Building) are integrated in all our target villages and are embedded in projects implemented by the Cambodian NGOs that comprise our Partnership Program. Our ten DSP staff members comprise one program manager, three program coordinators, three program officers and three program assistants. Their expertise encompasses community-based organization, income generation, food security, health, emergency response, community-based disaster risk management and peace building. During the reporting period preparations were made for the Svay Rieng WatSan cooperation Project to phase out from 59 villages at the end of this fiscal year. DSP staff stepped up efforts to enhance the implementation of project activities through staff capacity building and coaching, and the fine-tuning of necessary guidelines, such as the exit plan. In addition, with a 15-month grant from the Disaster Preparedness Program of the European Commission’s Humanitarian Aid Department (DIPECHO) through Dan Church Aid - Cambodia, CWS Cambodia began implementing a Community Based Disaster Risk Management (CBDRM) Project on 15 August, 2008 (the project runs until 14 November, 2009). It is being implemented through the ERP unit and the Battambang and Banteay Meanchey Partnership Project in 40 target villages along the Thai border: in Banteay Meanchey, Battambang and Oddar Meanchey provinces. Three Cambodian NGOs (CFEDA, KCDA and KNTO) that are holistic partners in the BTB&BTM Partnership Project were selected to implement CBDRM. This report discusses major accomplishments, staff capacity building, program development and the CBDRM Project. Challenges and lessons learned, the six-month plan and issues not addressed will be detailed below as well. First, however, it is helpful to reiterate our prime goal, which each of our programs (as well as our partnerships) is designed to accomplish.


Our Objective: To improve communities' capacity for peace building, emergency response, and disaster risk management, and facilitate their ability to define their development direction in a participatory and democratic manner.

Major Accomplishments and Changes Capacity Building for Development Planning

♦ Staff Technical Capacity Building

DSP Office staff members support and guide project implementation through technical and managerial supervision. Consequently, delivering internal technical training courses are a vital tool for building staff capacity. In this reporting period, the DSP office held eight training courses to support project implementation.

These courses have significantly improved the knowledge of field staff to facilitate community development work. Significant outputs of thee of the eight training courses are noted below.

i. CBDRM and Planning: the course was designed to enhance the understanding of staff in the Kompong Thom and Preah Vihear VBCD projects on disaster preparedness, risk reduction, response, hazard vulnerability and capacity assessment, and village disaster risk management planning. Additionally, this course provided key facilitation knowledge

and tools so that project staff can duplicate the training courses to relevant members of villages, including Red Cross Volunteers.

As a result of the “echo training”, 39 Red Cross Volunteers (18 women) attended two CBDRM and Planning training courses organized by CWS Cambodia staff during the reporting period. They comprised 20 RCVs (9 women) from Preah Vihear and 19 RCVs (9 women) from Kompong Thom. The RCVs will use their training by leading assessments of the hazard vulnerabilities and capacities to deal with them in their communities in cooperation with VDCs and local authorities.

ii. Community Led Total Sanitation: Our extensive water and sanitation related activities were enhanced by this training course provided, following the invitation of the DSP Office, by the Ministry of Rural Development. The training focused on resource mobilizing approaches and CLTS guidelines for community-initiated latrine construction by using available local resources at affordable prices. There was also a one-day field visit that enabled staff to practice the CLTS approach with the participation of 114 (60 women) residents of villages in Svay Rieng Province.

According to the CLTS strategy, people are responsible for building latrines by using their own resources. However, due to the extreme poverty in the villages where CWS works, we are considering subsidizing 50-75% of the cost of latrine construction. Beneficiaries would contribute from 25-50% in cash or the equivalent in labor. Following the CLTS promotion, four families in one target village (Beng Village, Kompong Thom) built their own dry-pit household latrines immediately after learning how to do so from CWS staff who had attended the training session. Field staff in the WatSan Project and VBCD projects in

KPT and PVH have found, however, that promotional charts that clarify the links between disease and sanitation are very useful for raising awareness and mobilizing the participation and contribution of local resources for latrine construction.

iii. Maternal Child Health Refresher Course: With support from the United Nations World Food Programme, CWS-C held a three-day refresher training course on MCH, aiming to enhance the capacity of staff as well as their confidence in implementing the project. Tests taken before and after the course found significant growth in knowledge about MCH among participants. (Testing scores improved from 34-70% prior to the course to 57-80% afterwards.)


Training on bookkeeping at a SHG workshop

All participants learned how to use counseling cards, which include recipes and instructions on how to prepare a nutritious corn and soybean (CSB) powder-based meal and porridge as well as the advantages of breast feeding. Staff members who participated in the course were able to duplicate the courses to Village Health Volunteers (VHVs) in KPT and PVH. The two echo training courses passed on the knowledge gained at the refresher course to 39 VHVs (15 women) in the KPT and PVH target villages. The pre- and post-test results and found that the trained VHVs were able to calculate and register children’s ages more accurately, use counseling cards more effectively and were able to show mothers how to prepare and cook CSB and nutritious porridge made from locally sourced and inexpensive ingredients.

♦ Community Capacity Building and Awareness Raising DSP staff members have supported communities in local capacity building for development and planning. Training courses and awareness raising events delivered directly by the DSP Office in cooperation with Project staff included ante- and post-natal care, primary health care, dengue fever, malaria, diarrhea, pneumonia, MCH, SHG concepts and bookkeeping, poultry and fish raising, and peace concepts. These courses and awareness raising events have significantly enhanced the knowledge and understanding of community people and produced behavioral changes. Below are two examples from the reporting period.

i. SHG Concepts: 188 people (127) in 12 villages in PVH and 471 (370) from 12 villages in KPT received training on SHG concepts. After training from the credit and income generation program coordinator and the DSP program manager, two additional SHGs in PVH and 12 additional SHGs in KPT, with an average of 15 members (including 12 women) in each group, were formed.

ii. Chicken and Duck Raising: 38 families in PVH were introduced to chicken and duck raising techniques by DSP staff in cooperation with project implementation staff. After the training, participants began raising poultry, increasing the numbers of their ducks and/or chickens steadily during the reporting period.

Ducklings were vaccinated and distributed to villagers in Svay Village, Preah Vihear

Program Development, Management and Supervision

♦ CWS Community Development Model Review CWS-C is implementing its four-year Village Based Community Development pilot project in 12 villages in KPT and 18 villages in PVH from FY08-FY11. This is the 2nd year of the pilot project. As a learning organization, CWS-C (following the Action Learning Reflection and Planning cycle) conducted a 2nd Community Development Model Review from 15-17 December to analyze accomplishments and consider further steps. The workshop was facilitated by Ms. Betty Langeler2.

All DSP staff – including those in the program

office, KPT and PVH projects, as well as the Monitoring and Evaluation Officer – were provided with the opportunity to reconsider the distinction between facilitating and implementing. CWS-C regards itself as an organization that facilitates the development process, with villages directing it according to their needs. Staff also participated in in-depth discussions about project boundary partners, progress markers and outcome mapping. At the workshop staff agreed to form a Community Development Model Review Team to revise the written guidelines in January 2009.

1. Emergency Response and Preparedness Program

♦ Community Based Disaster Risk Management Project €

CWS-C received a US$ 219,100 (€146,067) grant from the Disaster Preparedness Program of the European Commission’s Humanitarian Aid Department (DIPECHO) through Dan Church Aid – Cambodia for a joint Community Based Disaster Risk Management (CBDRM) Project in Cambodia. The project has been running since August 15, 2008 under the ERP Program and Battambang and Banteay Meanchey Partnership Project in 40 villages along the Thai border in Banteay Meanchey, Battambang and Oddar Meanchey provinces. Three Cambodian NGOs that are holistic partners of CWS-C are facilitating project activities in the villages. They are: the Cambodian Family Economic Development Association (CFEDA), Khmer Community Development Organization (KCDA) and Kumnit Thmey Organization (KNTO).

2 Ms. Betty Langeler helped facilitate the development of our Community Development Model in May 2006.


In the reporting period, the CBDRM Project has achieved the following results: - 81 Red Cross Volunteers (RCV) were elected or selected by community people with

assistance from Cambodian Red Cross provincial branches, CWS-C and CNGO partners. - 63 RCVs (29 women) were trained on Community Based First Aid by Cambodian Red

Cross provincial branches - 14 RCVs (4 women), 7 VDC members (1 woman), and seven village leaders participated

in two refresher courses on CBDRM and Planning. The courses were facilitated by ERP Program staff.

- 67 RCVs (38 women), 23 VDC members (6 women) and 33 village leaders (5 women) were trained on CBDRM and Planning in four training courses facilitated by ERP Program staff

- 4 provincial, 16 district (2 women) and 25 commune (2 women) members of committees for disaster management were trained on Community Based Disaster Preparation and Roles and Responsibilities by the National Committee for Disaster Management

- 6 CWS staff (1 woman), 5 KCDA staff (2 women), 5 CFEDA staff (4 women), 8 KNTO staff (3 women) and 2 ADOVIR staff (2 women) were trained on CBDRM and Commune Development Planning by the National Committee for Disaster Management and Ministry of Planning.

(Implementation of the CBDRM Project is covered in more detail in the report section on the BTB&BTM Partnership Project.)

Major Challenges

♦ DSP office staff members have a heavy workload, spending a great amount of time focused on mentoring the Svay Rieng WatSan Cooperation Project and the VBCD Projects in Kompong Thom and Preah Vihear provinces. The program has ten staff members, including one women manager who oversees the projects and a program assistant who is supported by colleagues in handling office work. Two program officers were assigned to assist the VBCD Projects in Kompong Thom and Preah Vihear provinces. The health program officer, and the program coordinators for peace and credit and income generation are responsible for technical support and capacity building to all three projects, as well as developing program/project guidelines and other necessary tools. Additionally, the peace program coordinator coordinates peace work through the partnership program while the ERP program coordinator and assistants3 are responsible for relevant work in the three direct projects as well as the CBDRM project. They also coordinate the emergency response component of CWS’s overall programming. At the same time, DSP Office staff members are heavily involved in capacity building through coaching and supplementary trainings to staff members implementing the new VBCD model in Preah Vihear and Kompong Thom provinces. This challenge has meant that some activities are running behind schedule due to the amount of time spent building the capacity of VBCD implementing staff during the first and second years of the model’s implementation. One attempt to reduce the amount of multi-tasking required was

the delivery of technical training courses to VBCD project staff members followed by help providing echo training to village members. Some training courses were also shortened, though this often resulted in a lessening of their effectiveness. Consequently, the DSP office intends to recruit more staff and review its internal structure in the second half of FY09.

Lessons Learned

♦ In the effort to build staff capacity and especially community capacity within a short timeframe, the program/project should produce or have access to more visual training aids, such as awareness raising material on primary health care, peace building, drought and disaster preparedness and food security.

♦ Within Phase One and year one of Phase Two of the VBCD mode, projects and program plans should more realistically take into account staff capacity and the objectives of each phase.

Issues Not Addressed

♦ During the implementation of the VBCD Project in Kompong Thom and Preah Vihear, the need for Village Livestock Agents (VLAs) or veterinarians became apparent. However, there was no response to this need, as VLAs had not been included in the annual project plan and budget constraints prevented adding them. However, the DSP will respond to this issue as soon as community VLA need assessments are conducted.

Future Plans

To implement the projects, including the effective phase out from 59 villages in two districts (Romeas Haek and Rumdoul) in the second phase of the Svay Rieng WatSan Cooperation Project, the Direct Services Program is focused on staff capacity building, project guidelines, exit plan implementation, field mentoring and building capacity in communities based on their needs. Specific interventions and activities during the second half of this fiscal year include: 2 training courses on water and health for PVH and KPT staff 1 training course on primary health care and support for maternal and child health to VHVs in

Yeang Commune, PVH 2 training courses on pre- and post-natal care to Traditional Birth Attendants in PVH 1 staff training course on LCP Assessment 3 staff training courses on Peace Building in Our Life (module 2) 1 training course on Trauma and Reconciliation in cooperation with the Transcultural

1.2. KOMPONG THOM VILLAGE BASED COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT PROJECT

Introduction

Our Village Based Community Development (VBCD) project in Kompong Thom has its roots in work begun in this central province in 1993, following the signing of the Paris Peace Agreement in 1991. Initially, we focused on humanitarian relief, specifically the re-integration and mobilization of repatriated refugees from camps along the Cambodian-Thai border. As the needs of the people evolved, our work shifted to Community Development in order to effectively respond to the real situation for both newly resettled families and those who had remained during the decades of devastating civil conflict. This development model has since grown into the four-year VBCD Project, which we began implementing in Kompong Thom in July 2007. The project got off to a slow start, which was compounded during the second half of its first fiscal year by a shortage of field staff. The hiring of new field staff during this reporting period helped put the project back on schedule. Field staff must be carefully selected as their role in the project requires a high level of commitment and personal sacrifice because they are required to live a few days a week in the remote villages where they work during the four-year implementation period. The preparatory phase of the project in the 12 target villages was time consuming, as staff helped organize community-based organizations and helped facilitate elections of Village Development Committees (VDCs), Village Health Volunteers (VHVs), Traditional Birth Attendants (TBAs), Community Peace Volunteers (CPVs), Red Cross Volunteers (RCVs) and Non-Formal Education (NFE, or adult literacy) teachers. At the same time, staff helped facilitate the creation of Self Help Groups (SHGs), Rice Bank committees, Water Pump User groups and prayer groups, while collaborating with governmental departments, such as the Provincial Department of Rural Development (PDRD), Provincial Health Department (PHD), Provincial Department of Education Youth and Sport, Provincial Department of Women’s Affairs, Cambodian Red Cross, and district authorities. Capacity building and service delivery were also provided to Commune Councils, VDCs and other village-based groups so they could implement development plans. The plans included activities in community development, food security, peace building, gender equality, education to children and adults, health and sanitation, income generation, and disaster preparedness. Staff members began working in the 12 villages in July 2007, becoming members of them by sleeping at residents’ homes a few nights a week. This is why we call our model Village-Based Development. CWS does not draft strategies and development plans for villages from offices located in provincial capitals or Phnom Penh. Instead, our staff members facilitate each village’s effort to identify the hurdles it faces and pinpoint solutions. This builds trust, fosters solidarity, and ensures that residents gain the confidence, knowledge and skills necessary to develop their communities independently. It also allows us to respond immediately to crises, such as floods, fires, and drought. The first phase (July 2007-June 2008) was challenging due to the lack of staff in the second half of the year. During this reporting period, the second phase of the Project is being implemented

more smoothly, as CWS has hired enough staff to fill all field positions. The project is on track but progress is still slow due to the need for capacity building for new staff to ensure they can work effectively with existing staff and community residents as well as understand the details of VBCD. Even with a well organized organization, dedicated and well trained staff, our work is as time consuming and difficult as it is rewarding and effective. It is critical to note that the communities in which we work have shattered social structures and lack basic infrastructure. Building trust with residents takes time, skill and empathy. The villages are also remote, isolated and extremely poor. Literacy rates are low. Capacity building often has to start from scratch, though once it catches on it often spreads quickly. Our VBCD model is a joint learning exercise between CWS staff and village residents. During the reporting period, 87% of the 124 community development initiative plans were accomplished. These included plans related to health, gender, peace, income generation and food security, Commune Council support, and Emergency Response were accomplished. For example, six NFE classes began in six villages with 124 students (94 women) enrolled, 12 new SHGs with 195 members (151 women) were set up in six villages were formed and strengthened, one Buddhist prayer group was established in Thmei village with 20 elderly members (15 women), five rice banks for 116 families in five villages were formed (after they received emergency rice aid from CWS in late 2007), and five palm sugar producing groups for 19 families were supported. Moreover, 72 vulnerable families in 12 villages were selected and received training on drafting annual household development plans. Our focus on helping the absolute poor has inspired neighbors who have watched them acquire confidence as they acquire the know-how to become self-sufficient and more active in their communities. Below are several highlights of objectives that were accomplished, challenges and lessons learned during the reporting period, and plans for the second half of this fiscal year.

Objective 1: Develop community capacity to engage with government institutions and CBOs to define their development direction and manage their affairs in a participatory and democratic manner.

Develop Plans

In cooperation with the Provincial Department of Rural Development, 72 VDC members (32 women) were elected or appointed. Training courses and workshops on topics such as Roles and Responsibilities, Problem Analysis, Proposal Writing, Leading and Managing Rural Communities, Community Organizing, Annual Village Planning Workshops and quarterly meetings were provided to VDCs and Commune Councils. As a result, the VDCs were able to put their newly acquired knowledge into practice by organizing meetings in their communities, developing and implementing monthly and annual action plans, and mobilizing local resources with the support of project staff. The capacity of project staff to monitor and evaluate project activities, however, still needs improvement.

The community development initiative plans that were implemented included construction of two community meeting halls (salas), two rural roads, one village culvert road, 11 open wells, 12 household latrines and one small water gate. Two water pumps were also installed and 64 bio-sand water filters were distributed. Fourteen families received grants to start small businesses. Eight families received poultry for raising (one received ducks and seven received chickens), nine families received rice seeds, four household latrines were installed, five families received open wells, 28 families received water filters, and 19 families began home gardening on their own initiative. Eleven residents were selected for training to teach NFE and six NFE classes began with a total enrollment of 124 students (94 women). The enthusiasm for these classes was high. For example, NFE students in Thmei village were so eager to learn they asked their teacher to extend the two hour class an additional hour. They progressed rapidly in reading, writing, calculating, and also encouraged their children to attend school regularly as they experienced the value of education.

Mrs. Pol Khim’s reason for attending the adult literacy class in Thmei Village differed from most of her 24 classmates. “I want to be able to read about Buddhism,” she explained, during one of the classes, which are held six day a week. About 90 percent of the students are women, most of whom are mothers. The two-hour class is held in the evening because, for most of them, this is the only free time they can afford. The class is run in conjunction with the Non-formal Education division of the Provincial Department of Education, which trained their teacher, Mr. Cheam Voeun, and provides him with a small stipend. His students say he is very talented, enthusiastic and so dedicated that he allows them to extend class an extra hour, to 10pm. The participants have learned to calculate and read

simple text in the Khmer language. Many of the students decided to attend classes because they were worried about being cheated by brokers as well as in the markets where they exchange produce and other goods. They also want to be able to help their children with their studies. The first primary school opened in the village in 2003, and many of the participants’ children attend it. Some mothers say their children are helping them learn to read and write, while others say they are helping their children do the same. Some students study in small groups if they have free time during the day. All agree that they are becoming more confident and less embarrassed. People, sometimes even their own children, used to call them “stupid” because they could not read or write. Mr. Yem Im, a VDC, said, “I am very happy with the class, made possible through CWS. Now, I am able to read and write. It is has greatly impacted and changed my work and life.” Mrs. Yath Heam, a SHG member said, “I am the treasurer for my group, but I could not have sufficiently done my job if I didn’t have the opportunity to attend this class. Now, I can record each savings amount properly and I can accurately calculate the amount that my group members borrow and repay.”


Students at an adult literacy class in Beng village, one of six non-formal education classes that began during the reporting period. Students are so keen to learn they have requested that the classes be extended by one hour.

The NFE class in Thmei Village began on June 30, 2008 with 24 students (19 women). They include members of Village Development Committees and Self Help Groups. Based on the final exams of the course on NFE book Part II, 124 students (100%) passed the exams. One student earned the top grade, 99 received the second, and 24 received the third. During the reporting period, community and vulnerable families have continued to work together for sustainable development. Vulnerable household development plans have been conducted by the families themselves, while villages have begun developing annual plans based on their own problem analysis. Community solidarity is being enhanced. Residents are working together to solve problems and social infrastructure that facilitates this is being strengthened. Objective 2: Improve access to basic social services and amenities, and improve overall food security for vulnerable people. Through close coordination and cooperation with health authorities (the Provincial Health Department, Operational Health District, and Health Centers), local health structures were established. Twenty-seven VHVs (nine women) were selected and 21 women TBAs were trained on roles and responsibilities, primary health care, malaria and dengue fever, HIV/Aids, maternal and child health care, basic nutrition, safe delivery, pre- and post-natal care, and child health care. Two quarterly meetings were also organized for VHVs to assess the effectiveness of the training they received. With some facilitation and support from Project staff, the VHVs collaborated with Health Centers to provide awareness raising to their communities. Three hundred and sixty-two people (305 women) from nine villages in Sraeung commune participated in malaria and dengue fever awareness raising in their villages. One hundred and seventy-two (172) people (87 women) from

two villages in Ti Pou commune and 225 primary school students (110 girls) from five schools joined the water and sanitation awareness session facilitated by VHVs. Moreover, 144 people (130 women) from two villages participated in awareness raising organized and facilitated by TBAs on birth spacing, maternal and child health care and family planning in December.

A joint Maternal and Child Healthcare project, which is being implemented in all target villages in collaboration with United Nations WFP, produced positive results as VHVs were more actively collaborating with project staff. Three hundred nineteen (319) children under two, 69 pregnant women, 126 lactating mothers and another 331 mothers received supplemental nutrition. One thousand two hundred and eleven women in 12 villages gained knowledge on basic nutritional needs through monthly awareness-raising sessions facilitated by VHVs. Mothers are increasingly bringing their children to Health Centers to monitor their weight and growth and follow up on feeding practices.

In response to an increase in school enrollment, the project helped 115 school-aged children (56 girls) attend primary school by providing school uniforms and supplies. The project also encouraged parents to send their children to primary school so that parents begin to take more responsibility for their children’s education. Home gardening and animal-raising training courses proved to be effective. Vulnerable families have started to plan integrated farm management, combining home gardening with animal production. Moreover, farmers are using newly acquired knowledge and techniques on crop storage, promoting the use of organic fertilizer and improving small-scale irrigation to expand production. As a result, 37 households have home gardens, 28 households practice integrated system of rice intensification, 12 households practice integrated farm management, 100 households have had their livestock vaccinated, and 30 households have increased poultry production with new chicken and duck raising techniques.


Mrs. Hoeun Ham sells Khmer cakes to augment her family income.

All families in the project areas are subsistence farmers. Most increase their incomes through various agricultural and non-agricultural income-generating projects supported with small grants from the project and SHG loans. Fourteen (14) vulnerable families received small grants and 12 SHGs were established with support from project staff. All 12 SHG (with 195 members in total, 151 of them women) were functioning fully with their members saving money every month. The groups used their savings for supporting business plans.

Mrs. Hoeun Ham, 28, is the head of an absolute poor household in Choam Boeng Village, Sraeung Commune. In 2001 she married, then had two children. The family left their village and moved to Kandal Province in hope of a better life. Mrs. Hoeun worked in a garment factory, her husband was a motor-taxi driver and the family lived in a rented room. But the situation was dismal. She saved nothing in five years and her family’s living situation worsened. In 2006, she decided to return to her village with her children. She worked as a seasonal harvest laborer and occasionally as a construction worker. However, this did not pay enough to feed her children, who often got sick from infectious diseases. In February 2008, after CWS program activities expanded to this area, the VDC and the village leader discussed how to help her family. CWS approved a

request for Mrs. Hoeun to start a small business selling breakfast meals and various groceries. With appropriate coaching from the VDC, village leader, project staff and support from village residents, her business expanded rapidly. By selling cooked rice and groceries, she earns a net profit of $2.00 per day. Next, she expanded her business by selling Khmer cakes in the afternoon, which increases her net profit to $3.00 per day. Mrs. Ham is very satisfied with her business and says she could not have started it without CWS’s help. “I can run the business because of educational support and coaching from CWS staff. Now my family does not suffer from hunger and my children’s health has greatly improved. I have some extra money to raise animals and grow vegetables. I am grateful am to CWS for supporting my family so we can have a new life.”

Before Now

- Only rice cultivation (farmer) - Worked as rice cultivation laborer - Worked as construction worker

(occasionally) - No animal raising - Children were sick two to three times a

month - Not enough food to eat and dependant on

rice cultivation - No household development plan

- Rice cultivation - Stopped working as a farm laborer for

others, but continues to grow rice for her family

- Sells breakfast meals and cakes in the afternoon

- Raises chickens and pigs - Children are rarely sick as hygiene and

sanitation have improved - Has enough food to eat - Developed Household Development Plan

and plan to extend income-generating work.


Participants at a domestic violence seminar raise their arms to show their commitment to ending violence. A high number of men participated in the seminars

Objective 3: Strengthen communities understanding and practice of peace building and restorative justice. Twenty five (25) Community Peace Volunteers (13 women) were elected by their villages with the help of project staff. In cooperation with the Provincial Department of Woman Affairs, these Community Peace Volunteers have identified 56 people (28 women) from seven villages in Sraeung commune and 46 people (30 women) from four villages in Ti Pou Commune to participate in a training course on gender equality and domestic violence. Moreover, 168 people (102 women) joined an awareness session on women’s rights and domestic violence and 132 (77 women) participated in a two-day White Ribbon campaign in Beng village.

Thirty two VPVs, VDC members and Village Leaders attended a three-day Peace building course organized by project staff from 23-25 October. They were able to transfer what they learned to members of their communities and conducted public awareness meetings on peace, gender and domestic violence. Gender streamlining has been implemented into the project and many women are in decision-making positions. Human rights issues are more openly discussed by residents who now frequently seek solutions from VDCs, Village Leaders and Commune Councils.


First aid training in Tumnob Village for Red Cross Volunteers from 12 villages.

Thlork Thin, an 11 year old girl living in Trapeang Trom village, Ti Pou Commune is grateful for the change in her father’s behavior. “Now my father never finds fault or hits my mother like he did before. Now, he always helps my mother. He helps make cakes, grows vegetable, and works hard to earn an income.” The family had been identified as a highly at-risk by field staff. The provision of materials such as a water filter, crop seeds, and working capital assistance have allowed the family to generate income through home gardening and producing Khmer cakes. Awareness raising on gender equity, domestic violence and peace concepts among vulnerable families, communities, and local authorities has had the most impact. Both vulnerable families and the target communities could now discuss openly as well as raise their concerns about human rights abuse or domestic violence to VDC, Village Leaders, and at times to CC for peaceful resolution.

Objective 4: Ensure meeting the basic needs of the most vulnerable people and victims of emergency by prioritizing target communities’ needs and enhancing their capacity to prepare for and respond to local disasters.

Following democratic elections facilitated by the Provincial Red Cross and project staff, the 12 target villages now have 24 (12 women) Red Cross Volunteers. In coordination with Provincial Red Cross, two training courses on Roles and Responsibilities and Community Based Disaster Management were provided to the RCVs and VDCs. Project staff then helped them prepare disaster mitigation plans. As a result, eight villages have begun various disaster mitigation projects, including rehabilitation systems, open wells,

rice banks, water pump machine groups, and emergency food support. These mitigation projects were

planned to link with food security activities to ensure long-term food security. Moreover, five Community Based Disaster Management plans – construction of one water canal, repairs of three dams, and one CBDRM course – were inserted into the annual village development plans. Ms. Un Neang, a SHG member in Choam Boeng village, said, “Before, we here never had enough water for use, especially in the dry season. We had to go to the pagoda to fetch water, which took a lot of time. Since we got well, my family can grow beans or pickles for sale and grow vegetables to eat. I plan to expand my garden to grow more produce for sale.”


Objective 5: Effective and efficient program management and functioning; enhance community development planning and practice. Based on the program and project training work plan, nine project staff were trained on Creative Holistic Action Research for Relationship Transformation (CHART), Leading and Managing Rural Organization, Participatory Learning and Action, Community Development Concept, Community Development Model, Peace Concept, Local Capacity for Peace, CBDRM, Water and Sanitation, Community Led Total Sanitation, Primary Health Care, Maternal and Child Health, SHG, Most Significant Change and agriculture-related subjects. The monitoring report in June 2008 showed that the project activities were 70% completed as measured against the annual plan. Thus, another 30 percent of project activities will be achieved in the next semester. This outcome comes from the joint effort of qualified project staff, communities and related implementing partners. Project management is being improved, including the capacity of project staff to work with communities and with other implementing partners. Based on the monitoring report, the effectiveness of the implementation of project activities is 7.71 over the average. The coordination with VDC and Village leaders is 9.4, and beneficiaries’ satisfaction is 8.6. Major Challenges Community representatives are elected by residents through free and fair election, but in some cases one individual can be elected to a few positions at the same time. This can cause them to be too busy to be effective and to neglect their families, which can result in conflicts with their spouse. To avoid this, Project staff members encourage elected representatives to balance the work they do for their village with their responsibilities to their families. Kompong Thom was identified as one of the three poorest provinces in Cambodia by the Ministry of Planning in 2004, and there has been an influx of agencies and NGOs into the area since then. Information sharing among agencies and NGOs is, however, limited, and this can result in more than one NGO implementing identical programs in a single commune without any coordination. Different approaches taken by various agencies and NGOs can also complicate implementation. For example, in Sraeung Commune, our VBCD approach requires residents to contribute labor as well as a partial payment for the construction of a latrine or well or to receive a water filter. Other development models implemented by different NGOs require that residents only contribute labor in exchange for a latrine or well. This has made some residents of the commune reluctant to contribute partial payment for latrines and wells. Project staff attempted to explain that the partial payment was intended to ensure a sense of ownership and participation by the recipients. Eventually, however, a decision was made to stop installing latrines and wells in Sraeung and increase the number planned for Ti Pou commune instead. Several target villages are former target areas of other organizations. When CWS staff members begin implementing VBCD in these villages, they start by promoting SHGs as means for investing and saving. The intention is to encourage them to work together in a way that sparks self reliance and frees them from dependency on moneylenders and the crippling rates of interest they charge. In villages where other development models have failed, SHGs can be a tough sell initially. Residents are sometimes suspicious are dismissive. As a result field staff invest a lot of time explaining the strengths and weaknesses of CWS’s SHG model.

1 Maximum score =10


Lessons learned The development process can be slowed if residents elect the same individual for multiple positions. As a result, field staff encourage residents to elect representatives on the basis of whether they can handle the workload rather than their reputation in the community, and explain that this leads to more effective development. For water and sanitation, more research is required during project planning in the target areas to determine whether other agencies or NGOs plan to implement similar projects. Furthermore, discussions should be held with other agencies or NGOs implementing (or planning to implement) similar projects to ensure sustainability and maximum advantages to the community.

Clear presentation of project guidelines and varieties of development activities to be implemented to local authorities, VDCs, CBOs, and key people through the meeting can effectively increase their interest for higher participation with the project.

Issues not addressed According to the four-year work plan, the project covers 12 villages (four in Ti Pou Commune and eight of nine villages in Sraeung Commune). One village, Svay, with 104 households (451 men and 215 women) was not selected due to its remoteness and isolation. It is inaccessible during the rainy season. No assistance or services have reached this village. Following requests from local authorities and village residents, the Project in cooperation with the Kompong Thom PDRD helped elect a VDC for the village in February 2008. Subsequently, residents frequently request that CWS implement VBCD in their village. Local authorities have also requested that the village be added to the Project but at this time CWS cannot fully implement VBCD in the village. In response Project staff have asked residents to make an official written request to be added to the target area in the future. Village Health Volunteers from the Svay village have been invited to participate in training sessions at the Kompong Thom office.

19PHV Village Based Community Development Project

1.3. PREAH VIHEAR VILLAGE BASED COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT PROJECT

Introduction

CWS Cambodia began its Village Based Community Development (VBCD) pilot project in Preah Vihear and Kampong Thom Province in July 2007, and subsequently divided it into two parts to simplify monitoring and support. The Preah Vihear VBCD Project has targeted four remote communes: Cheam Khsant, Rumdas Sre, Tuek Krohom, and Yeang in Choam Khsant District. During the reporting period the Project has implemented stage two: livelihood strengthening. With a high level of commitment, the team has facilitated positive changes in the community through networking and local capacity building for development planning. Staff members have invested their time working as partners with vulnerable families, Village Development Committees (VDCs), Village Health Volunteers (VHVs), Red Cross Volunteers (RCVs), Community Peace Volunteers (CPVs), CBOs and local authorities as well as government offices and departments. With the support of World Food Program the Maternal Child Health project has improved the health and nutrition of mothers and children through education and nutritional supplements. With 11 staff members staying living in the target area three weeks per month and two program officers living there one or two weeks per month, the Project covers 18 villages, directly benefiting 8,420 people (6,099 women) and indirectly benefiting 2,030 more (1,320 women).

Major Accomplishments and Changes

Networking with government officials CWS-C regards relationship and networking building with local authorities and other government institutions as one of core principles of our work. Cooperation and collaboration with authorities at all levels is important as they are responsible for assisting the people they represent, while NGOs like CWS-C can only assist those who cannot afford to help themselves and cannot take responsibility for the entire population. Within this reporting period, local authorities and government institutions provided support to CWS staff in many ways, including security, material and moral support. Security support: As our staff members spend most of their time in villages with residents, including staying overnight, they often leave our office, and valuable assets such as motorbikes and computers, unattended. However, due to our good rapport with local authorities, police regularly patrol to ensure the office is secure when CWS staff members are away. Moreover, during the border dispute between Thailand and Cambodia, local authorities kept us updated on the situation and recommended when it was safe to resume work. Government offices also assist CWS by providing facilities and materials for free. For example, during World Aids day, Heath Center staff lent 100 signs and two cloth banners with HIV/Aids prevention messages, saving CWS about US$ 150 in printing costs. Health Center staff also provided leaflets on malaria and dengue fever to VHVs for a joint health care campaign.


Moral Support: Commune Councils and District officials have continuously encouraged our work and the relationships built in the target area have encouraged authorities in other communes to invite CWS to work in their areas. These close relationships can translate into benefits for village residents. During the rainy season last year, some villages in Yeang commune were inaccessible for about four months. This interrupted the delivery of nutritional supplements to mothers and children. When this issue was raised by CWS’s Direct Services Program Manger during her courtesy visit to District Governor Mr. Kao Long said he would do his utmost to prevent the same situation from arising during the next rainy season. “There must be no delay [delivering aid] in the future,” he said. “Even if it means that I will have to go to Yeang commune myself,” he stressed. Close relationships with government officials also allow CWS staff to cut through formalities when advocating on behalf of residents. Vegetable Seed Distribution During the reporting period, CWS staff members distributed vegetable seeds to 90 vulnerable households in 18 villages. In most cases, these families had little experience in home gardening and their yields were low. With training, however, residents began placing fences around their gardens to prevent animals from eating their crops, and started weeding and watering their home gardens regularly. Seventy of the 90 families had already started their home gardens and 10 had produced surplus vegetables that they could sell to neighbors to generate income. By growing their own vegetables the families also saved the money they would have spent to purchase them. Mrs. Van Khan, who is married with four children, noted that her home garden also saved her the time she used to spend traveling to and from the market to buy vegetables. “The market is very far from my house and we have to spend a long time traveling to it. We used to spend about 3,000 riels a day to buy vegetables but now we grow our own. It saves travel costs, provides food and a little extra we can sell to neighbors,” she explained. Project staff members are now encouraging the families to expand their home gardens and pointing to those households who have been most successful to encourage others to follow suit. They are also encouraging residents to save money for buy their own seeds in the future. Mrs. Eam Ean, a widow who supports four children as well as her elderly mother, was easily to convinced to start buying seeds. The resident of Chat Taing village has experienced the benefits home gardening for the first time. “I now have vegetables for eating and don’t have to buy them from the market or neighbors so I can save a bit of money. I also save the cost of traveling to the market and have bought morning glory seeds to continue my CWS garden,” she said. Tropeang Thom village resident Mrs. Soeurn Sam On, who also has four children, summed up the Project’s success in one sentence. “I can see the benefits with my own eyes,” she explained. “I no longer have to buy vegetables, I can grow them myself and I will continue to do so.”


Model farmer Mr. Nou Sareth waters his garden in Kok Sralaov village, Preah Vihear.

Mr. Kong Chon, 24, and his spouse Kong Chim, 25, have two children, (a three year old and a six month old infant). They live in Rolum Thmor village where they used to use 60% of their farming land to grow vegetables with chemical fertilizer and pesticides. Mr. Chon said that he often felt dizzy and had headaches after using chemical pesticides and that sometimes he and his family sometimes got sick after eating vegetables that had just been sprayed with chemicals. Because he had never been warned about the dangers of chemical pesticides sometimes he and his family would eat vegetables that had just been spayed, he said. He did not realize that this was the reason he and his family often got sick. CWS staff visited this family and encouraged them to avoid using chemical pesticides to save money and ensure their health. He was encouraged to try compost fertilizer and natural pesticides instead. This method was explained by successful farmers in a magazine distributed by CWS staff. Mr. Chon began experimenting with these new cost-saving and healthy techniques. “I started to make compost in October. I used livestock dung and green leaves. After just three months, I was able to use it,” he said. He made natural pesticide by mixing chili, onion, urine, sdao leaves and morning glory. It took just two weeks to make, he said. “I notice that my vegetables look healthier and I don’t feel sick all the time. My family is healthier too,” he explained.


Seeing his industrious and creativity, CWS provided his family with seeds and he built a fence around his the garden to protect it. Although his vegetables were not yet ready for harvest they looked promising. “I believe there will be a demand for my vegetables. If I cannot sell them we can eat them or find some way to turn them into a processed food,” he said. Hs techniques are catching on. Four neighbors have sought his advice on organic farming.

Book Distribution

Schools in remote area like Choam Khsant District face many challenges, including a lack of classrooms, qualified teachers and books. Mr. Va Mao is the principal of Choam Khsant High School. “My school has 172 students (76 girls) and three teachers, but unfortunately there isn’t enough space for all the students and we have a shortage of reading materials. All we have are textbooks. To respond compensate for the lack of space, we use four classrooms from Choam Khsant Primary School while we wait for more classrooms to be constructed,” he said. As CWS staff members noticed that in Choam Khsant market there are no bookshops selling reading materials, just shops selling stationary and notebooks. Although CWS staff cannot solve classroom shortage and lack of qualified teachers, CWS is supporting schools with books.

CWS staff members first identified appropriate content for reading materials in consultations with teachers and the principal.

During the reporting period, CWS distributed 222 books on various topics, including moral education, Khmer literature and peace, youth. With more books to choose from, students will be more likely to read. The Table below lists the books distributed.

School

During the report writing, staff members met students and teachers to ask them about the benefit of the books. CWS also received 17 thank you letters from ten schoolboys and seven schoolgirls. Chemistry Teacher Mr. Thong Kim said, “I am very happy with the books. Even though they are few in proportion to the number of students and none are related to chemistry they are helpful for my students and as well as for teachers like me.”.] Mr. Seng Sethor, a Chemistry Teacher in Romdas Sre Secondary School, said that he hoped that by reading the books students would attend class more regularly and study hard. In a letters sent to CWS, 12th Grade student Pouv Sokry said, “The book that introduced self reflection and choosing the right livelihood (Way of the World), made me think deeply.”

Grade 9 student Yean Vannath learned the cause of personal destruction while Lach Tola learned that imitating others is harmful.

Major Challenges

Duck raising

To encourage food security the project bought 500 ducklings from Kompong Thom and distributed them to 24 farmers in 12 villages. Two families of those selected were identified as model farmers and received 100 ducklings, while other 22 families received 13-15. However, due to the young age of he ducklings (one week) and the long distance they were transported, 120 died soon after arrival. As a result, the model farmers received only 70 ducklings, while the other families received less than 10. Almost two-thirds of those that survived were male ducklings that farmers could raise only for consumption or sale. The selected families expected, however, to raise them to produce eggs to sell in local markets demands.

Border Tension

Due to the conflict near Preah Vihear temple the office in Choam Khsant was closed for a month and staff were shifted to Kompong Thom. Residents were also advised by the government to speed up their harvest. As a result, the early harvest interfered with many planned activities such as workshops, food delivery for the MCH project, development activities, meetings, and monitoring. CWS formed a security committee to monitor the Preah Vihear Project and security guidelines for staff were introduced and evacuation points identified. Daily security updates were made and the work plan was revised.

Lessons Learned

To reduce the mortality rate of ducklings they should be bought when they are between 20 and 30 days old so they can be transported a long distance. Moreover, it is easier to distinguish the sex of older ducklings. Appointing a security assessment team and drafting a detailed security plan helps create a feeling of safety among staff working in conflict areas, as well as appreciation for the organization.

Issues Not Addressed

Farmers in Cambodia are very busy and have their annual rice harvest in December. They sell their rice to wholesalers at very cheap prices, about 800 to 1,000 riels per kilogram as they need money to repay the cost of fuel and chemical fertilizers bought on credit during the planting season. Selling rice when prices are at their lowest makes it difficult to repay loans. If farmers could keep their rice in stock they could sell during the planting season when prices nearly double. Although it is not possible to convince farmers to hold onto their rise when they need to sell it to repay loans, project staff try to convinced them to consider the possibility of food shortages before the next harvest.

27SVR WatSan Cooperation Project

1.4. SVAY RIENG WATER AND SANITATION COOPERATION PROJECT

Introduction

Church World Service Cambodia started working Svay Rieng in 1992, focusing on helping the absolute poor and vulnerable people through integrated community development. The project was successfully handed over to community based organizations, communities and provincial authorities in May 2005. By FY06, in partnership with Provincial Department of Rural Development (PDRD), CWS started a new initiative: the Water and Sanitation Cooperation Project, or WatSan, focusing on the access to and quality of drinking water, environmental sanitation, health and hygiene development, wastewater use, use of household water filters and safe water storage, water-related diseases and other issues. For three years (2006-2008), the project focused its attention on community awareness as well as developing the technical capacity of local partners by providing training, workshops and construction of infrastructure in 19 villages of five communes in Romeas Haek and Rumduol districts along the border of Cambodia and Vietnam. In order to ensure effective and efficient implementation of the project, CWS changed its working strategy from being a direct implementer with large number of staff to working in a cooperative partnership the PDRD, whose staff have skills and expertise related to water and sanitation. During this reporting period CWS plans phase out from the target areas and the Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) was not renewed as CWS could not provide extra funding to its cooperative partner. However, with seven project staff members and seven commune development facilitators (CDFs), the WatSan Cooperation Project distributed 10 bio-sand filters to 49 beneficiaries (27 women). Additionally, 564 beneficiaries (253 women) received training on village development plans, bio-sand filter operation and maintenance, latrine use and maintenance, and hygiene and sanitation practice.

Major Accomplishments and Changes

Overall Objective: To expand the coverage of improved water and sanitation facilities to the under-served population of Romeas Hek and Romduol District, Svay Rieng Province, and to improve health and hygiene practices related to water-borne diseases and sanitation.

In collaboration with Commune Councils, CDFs, village leaders, user groups and respective communities, staff conducted needs assessment in 20 villages in five communes in two districts in September and October. More than one thousand, 1,044, households were identified as in need of bio-sand filters and 370 interested in household latrines. The beneficiary selection process included introducing the negative effect of poor sanitation and hygiene, need prioritization and participatory wealth ranking. As the result, 710 households out of 1,044 were selected as beneficiaries of bio-sand water filters and 140 households of 370 were selected as beneficiaries of latrines by communities. Village water and sanitation related action plans were developed accordingly, covering education and awareness raising, capacity building for key persons and bio-sand filter and latrine construction.


Capacity Building In this reporting period, 21 training courses delivered by the project has reached 564 people (253 women), including beneficiaries of bio-sand filters, latrines, user groups, Commune Councils, village leaders and CDFs (see chart below).

Local capacity in development planning is one of the most critical core concepts of the WatSan Cooperation Project. The Village Development Plan and Simple Proposal training course is a crucial intervention to build capacity so that communities can manage and implement their development activities locally. Participants showed high interest in the course provided by CWS staff and requested more training courses. Immediately after the training course, a water and sanitation user group in Trapiang Svay village, Daung Commune was able to write a proposal and submit it to CWS to request 25 more latrines without any support from staff. In the proposal, the committee was able to mobilize community contributions as well. This request will be granted in the next semester. It is noticed that training courses and awareness raising provided by CWS also influenced non-beneficiaries of the project, like Mrs. Hem Sina, 34, in Thmey village. “I never received any awareness training from CWS, but became aware that sanitation and hygiene has critical effects on my family’s health through my neighbor Mrs. Chan Sophea, who received awareness raising on water, hygiene and sanitation from CWS. Mrs. Chan advised me to clean my house compound, clean utensils and cover the food well before and after eating. She also explained the danger of drinking unclean water.” Mrs. Sina continued, “I follow Mrs. Sophea’s advice and I noticed that all of my family members’ health improved. We no longer get diarrhea or diseases such as typhoid. This also helps my family save a lot of time and money that would be spent on medicine.”

Mrs. Sina cleans her yard.


Bio-sand filter construction and installation Since FY06, the WatSan Cooperation Project has constructed 1,215 bio-sand water filters benefiting 1,154 households (5,314 people consisting of 2,514 women and 1,348 children), 13 schools (with 115 male teachers, 19 female teachers, 2,744 schoolboys and 2,309 schoolgirls), five commune halls (with 42 staff), 14 pagodas (78 monks, 187 laymen, 31 nuns and 14 children), and one health center (8 staff). According to the beneficiary selection process and participatory wealth ranking, the project allows cash or labor contributions for bio-sand filters. The financial contribution has enabled the project to supply more filters to families in target communities. It has also allowed the program to expand coverage beyond the absolute poor in an area where the need for clean water is immense. The contributions ensure a sense of ownership by recipients as well. In FY08, the project had supplied 400 more bio-sand filters to residents of 20 villages. During this reporting period, 10 bio-sand filters were constructed and installed in Bos Mon Leu Village, Bos Mon Commune, Romeas Hiek District for 10 households benefiting 49 people (27 women), 10 boys and 7 girls. According the future plans, 700 filters will be constructed and distributed in the next semester to 20 villages. The need assessment and village planning exercise also indicated that 85-90% of community people in the target area are now thinking of their health, starting with drinking safe water (filtered or boiled). Mr. Meas Than, 58, a resident of Kra Nhoung Village, Daung Commune, has become more health conscious. “Before members of my family often got diarrhea because we drank water from an open well. We wasted a lot of time and money, mostly spent on health care. After we received the filter from CWS as well as education, we definitely understood the importance of sanitation and hygiene (good food, good living). I and my family believe 100% in the quality of the bio-sand water filter because there is no sediment after the water is filtered and my family’s health has improved. After seeing the benefits, I recommended that my neighbors use the water from the filter and clean the filter as well as household compound to make our family healthier. Moreover, I usually tell other villagers that when their village is cleaned, they will get a higher yield of rice production because when they live in a healthy environment, they will be able to do all kinds of work, including harvesting to support our daily living.”

The Magic of Bio-sand Filters Mr. Kao Sophon, 52, and his wife Mrs. Moeng Ry, 37, live in Ta Suos Village, Doung Commune with their two children (a daughter and a son). Their son later migrated to Phnom Penh to work as a garment factory worker. During non-harvesting time, his wife and daughter travel across the border to Vietnam to earn extra income. Sophon’s family often got sick. He himself suffered from water-related diseases often.

One noticeable effect of the WatSan Project is that residents are keeping yards tidier


Mr. Sophon pours water into his bio-sand filter.

In March of 2007, CWS provided this family with a bio-sand filter when it was discovered that the water from the well in his area had a high concentration of iron concentration. Seventeen months later when he was interviewed during a monitoring visit to find out how the bio-sand filter is working at his place, he said: “My family uses the water from the filter for drinking and cooking 100% of the time. My family’s health is much better today and we rarely have diarrhea and abdominal pain. It saves us time and frees us to do more work thus increasing my family’s income.” He also introduced his neighbors and other villagers to the advantages of bio-sand filter. Some villagers have changed their behavior of drinking water directly from the wells to drinking and using filtered water. His family members and some other villagers are not only drinking filtered water at home but they also bring the filtered water with them when they go to work. They now understand the importance of clean water for their health. Besides sharing this information with his neighbors, M Sophon also shared the water from his filter with four neighboring families (17 household members). “The four families always come to get water from my filter for drinking and cooking daily since they know the effectiveness of water purified by bio-sand filters.” He and his household members were not greedy. They strongly urged CWS to provide one bio-sand filter for each family to bring clean water to them. Now, the entire community has access to clean and safe water. Latrines construction Since FY06, the project had constructed 320 household latrines for households consisting of 1,095 members (727 women, 218 boys and 216 girls) and three school latrines benefiting 13 teachers, 343 schoolboys and 333 schoolgirls. In this reporting period 370 families in 20 villages are identified as in need of household latrines. However, based on a participatory wealth ranking approach, the project plans to construct 140 latrines in next semester. Moreover, among the 140 identified beneficiaries, 120 families have already been trained on latrine operation and maintenance. Through awareness raising and capacity building, communities as well as key people understand the effect of poor sanitation. This is shown through the numbers of people willing to use and request latrines as well latrines constructed by village residents based on CWS’s model (one in Sramor Village, one in Trapeang Thom Village, one in Bos Svay Village, one in Andaung Krasaing Village and another at the Administrative Police Post of Daung Commune). Moreover, the water and sanitation user group in Trapeang Svay Village (a target village in FY08) requested 25 more latrines for their community, volunteering to contribute 50,000 riels (about US$12.5) for each latrine. In Andaung Krasaing Village in Pongtoek Commune, the family of Mr. Nhim Tre, 33, constructed a latrine based on the CWS’s model. “I need a latrine as I realized the negative impact of open defecation and difficulties during raining season. Getting diarrhea at night time is one of the examples. Animals eat the excreta and there is bad smell in the village,” he said. He added that “In 2007, CWS entered my village and I saw the construction of a CWS latrine. I decided to


Mr. Smong Leak proudly shows off the family latrine.

construct one for my family because I understand that latrines help reduce sickness, such as diarrhea and typhoid; they reduce the chance of getting worms. Besides helping to improve the health of my family, it is comfortable to use a latrine and we are no longer ashamed by a bad smell.”

How a Latrine Can Save Lives Mrs. Kim Thoeurn and her husband Mr. Smong Leak recalled the direness of their situation in their village. “Before CWS came to our village in 2008, we had no latrines and were forced to use the backyard and the nearby forest as our bathroom. Chickens and pigs often unearthed the waste buried there and made the environment unsafe and unhygienic,” she said. Mr. Leak and the children often suffered from abdominal pain and stomach maladies. What made the situation worse was that because of his hypertension, Mr. Leak was unable to walk by himself and constantly needed his wife’s physical assistance. She was so tied up by this daily chore of helping her husband move around that it prevented her from earning a living. The situation changed when CWS made a timely intervention in their village. Kim Thoeurn was selected as one of the beneficiaries of the

WatSan project. She recalled her happiness and excitement when she found out that her family would get a free latrine, saying she was so pleased that she was unable to sleep the night before the installation. Her husband said he could not be appreciative enough. “I appreciate CWS’s kindness and understanding in providing this latrine for my family. It greatly improves our situation because our house no longer smells bad as it did and we no longer suffer from diarrhea. For me it is easy to go to our latrine on my own by using a walking stick. I suggest that CWS should construct more latrines for the vulnerable people in this community. Having the latrine indeed saved my life as well as my family,” he explained. CWS provided an average of five latrines per village.

Hand pump well construction Since FY06, the project has constructed 406 hand pump wells for communities and schools and upgraded 32 wells for communities, benefiting 1,028 households consisting of 4,715 people (1,351 women, 128 boys and 113 girls) in 59 villages in the five target communes. The number of indirect beneficiaries was estimated at 1,900 people. Moreover, 633 people (227 women) were trained on hand-pump operation and maintenance, and 255 user group members (92 women) were also trained on hand-pump maintenance and repair. Among the 406 wells, 226 wells have fences to protect them (and adjacent home gardens) from animals. Of the 226 families with home gardens 49 earn additional income by selling vegetables. Mr. Svay Lot, 28, in Chea Theach Village, Daung Commune, said that after getting a hand-pump


well he and his wife grew vegetables and herbs, such as cucumbers, morning glory, pumpkins, and lemongrass. His family has access to vegetables for daily consumption and can earn more income. “Last year my family earned 200,000Riels (about US$50) from selling vegetables that I grew with water from my well. I used this income to buy 10 chickens, five ducks and one pig to raise. I believe that this will help increase my income even more, and also help avoid a food shortage this year”. However, due to the exit plan, the end of cooperation with the PDRD and the result of the village need assessment and planning in October 2008, the WatSan project has decided not to construct wells in FY09. Major Challenges

Conducting village profiles, activity plans and the selection of user groups is quite time consuming, and draws staff away from other activities, especially construction of latrines and water filters. Moreover, the harvest season and extended rainfalls also pose a challenge regarding the participation of community people in village meetings, awareness raising and bio-sand filter construction. As the result, most of the construction was delayed. Only 10 water filters were constructed out of the planned 710 and no latrine was constructed during the reporting period, though the plan called for 140 to be built.

Lessons Learned

Due to the above challenges, project staff have learned that work plan should be completed before implementation starts, especially the village profiles, which were conducted in the first half of the 4 year project implementation.

Future Plans

Construct 700 bio-sand filter for 700 households in 20 villages Construct 6 bio-sand filter for Sramor Primary School Construct 140 latrines for 140 households in 20 villages Provide education on bio-sand filter operation and maintenance to 700 beneficiaries in

PARTNERSHIP PROGRAM

BATTAMBANG & BANTEAY MEANCHEY PARTNERSHIP PROJECT

KOMPONG THOM PARTNERSHIP PROJECT


Partnership Program 33

2.1. PARTNERSHIP PROGRAM

INTRODUCTION

After decades of conflict, social dislocation and destruction of both economic and social capital, international and Cambodian NGOs are working cooperatively to alleviate poverty. CWS is one of many NGOs in Cambodia that began working with the Cambodian NGO network in Kompong Thom in 1996 to contribute to poverty reduction. However, without strong effort and capacity building on institutional development, CNGOs cannot effectively implement their development programs and handle organizational management to reduce oppression, injustice and inequities. CWS believes our partnership model is to provide financial and technical capacity for holistic partners, grant partners and local institution development (LID) partners to build and develop their professional competencies, including knowledge, skills and attitudes so that they can become self-reliant. To ensure sound management of the partnership program, CWS has used its own partnership protocol and guidelines when we partner with civil society. Within this report period, the Partnership Program continued to focus on building capacity, providing financial and technical support and joint project implementation with 47 organization partners1 in 10 different partner categories: Buddhist-based, Christian-based, children at risk, indigenous-based, peace building, community development, youth partner, advocacy, network, and implementing partners. The Partnership Program provides overall leadership and management to the Partnership Program office, Partnership Project BTB&BTM and Partnership Kompong Thom to assist 59 partner relationships2 including a new holistic partner: Cooperation for Indigenous People and Development in Cambodia (CIDC). During this reporting period, the Partnership Project BTB&BTM worked with four holistic partners: KCDA and ADOVIR in Battambang province and CFEDA and KNTO in Banteay Meanchey province; while the Kompong Thom Partnership project worked with two holistic partners: KORCD and CIDC. The BTB&BTM Partnership Project also works with DYBTB in BTB and DYBTM and DYMB in BTM province, while the KPT Partnership Project words with Adsu Church in Adsu village, Prasath Sambo District. In addition, the Program Office provided capacity building on different skills of organizational development: financial management and accounting for 12 CNGO partners (CSF, KCC, CFED, CC, ICA, and CSCM and the 6 holistic partners); strategic planning for KCC, CSF and CC; proposal development for CSF; and financial review for CFED Svay Rieng.

MAJOR ACCOMPLISHMENTS AND CHANGES

Objective 1: To strengthen the capacity of holistic CNGO partners and small project fund recipients to facilitate programs that will effectively and sustainably improve the living conditions of the most vulnerable.

CWS technical support enabled KCC and CC to sharpen their focus and confidently present long-term strategic plans to potential partners and donors.

1 47 partners: 43 CNGOs, 2 INGOs, one international organization and one research institute. 2 59 partners: 6 holistic, 5 graduated, 26 grant, 14 local institution development and 8 implementing partners.

CC’s staff used SWOT for strategicanalysis

CWS’s Partnership Program has recognized that most of its CNGO partners have either expired strategic plans or none, as they lack the technical skills and resources to develop such strategies. The partners have thus implemented their programs based on yearly plans and budget availability. Most partners have been asked by potential donors to present long-term strategic plans, but often no such plans exist. This was the case for the Kampuchea Christian Council (KCC) and Children Committee (CC). KCC was established and administered by WCC in July 1998. It now has 80 local church members across the country with core support from WCC, CCA and other potential donors. KCC’s vision is to work for “abundant life in Christ for all, by unity in affection, justice and peace in order to develop Cambodian society”. The council has faced many challenges with their management system and leadership as well as financing over the last 10 years3. Its strategic plan had expired and it needed support to develop a new one. With technical support from Partnership Program staff, KCC was able to develop a strategic plan and its members have a clear understanding of why the strategy is important. KCC staff can now articulate the ideas from the strategic plan and put them into proposals submitted to CCA and other donors. At the same time, KCC is also able to present its strategy to donors and has gained more confidence from them. The Children Committee (CC) is a grant partner of CWS established on 20 September, 1995 through the election of children at all levels in different provinces and was administered by Egos Committee for Children’s Rights. CC works to enhance the long-term development of Child Rights and Education for a better future for children. However, CC is struggling to run its organization due to limited experience and skills in management, policy development, strategic planning and project development for fundraising. Most donors prefer to provide financial support for specific interventions rather than core funding that would allow CNGOs to develop their own programming. A strategic plan is one requirement of donors. CWS accepted CC’s request and conducted a one-week workshop to enable its staff to clarify and understand the details of a strategic plan developed for their organization. In addition, through a SWOT analysis, staff also practiced critical thinking and diagnosed their organization’s strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats. The staff said this was the first time they had looked at their organization deeply, critically and analytically. “On behalf of CC and child clubs, I would like to express our thankfulness to CWS for professional guidance and all support with emotional inspiration, motivation, encouragement, sharing common values and building confidence among us,” said Ms. So Kunthy, CC Executive Director.

3 27-29 March 2008, KCC with technical support from CWS organized a general assembly and selected a new general committee with 11 members.


CWS doesn’t only build capacity for CNGO partners it also helps them tap more funds

Objective 3: Provide overall management and supervision and capacity building to partnership program field staff; develop and strengthen mechanisms, practices, guidelines and tools to improve the partnership program and lead to enhanced outcomes.

CWS has been working with more than 40 partners in different sectors across the country, dividing them into three categories. Among these categories, local institution development requires highly professional and experienced staff as well as longer working hours, more complex interventions and a greater degree of challenge. During this reporting period, the Partnership Program provided strong support for the Children Support Foundation (CSF) and Cambodian Farmer Economic Development (CFED) for their organizational development and management. CSF faced a funding shortfall for implementation of its programs, while CFED was required by its donor [MekongPlus] to improve its financial management and accounting system. CSF promotes advocacy on prevention and protection of at-risk children and their families through awareness raising, especially on HIV/Aids and other epidemic diseases. This advocacy requires CSF to strategically organize public campaigns on special occasions, such as the annual Water Festival, World Aids Day, and Children’s Day. CSF wanted to approach UNESCO and FAO for funds for these campaigns, but its staff were not strong enough to articulate their ideas and write proposals. Seeing great value from this opportunity, the Partnership Program Manager (although pressed for time with other urgent work) spent two full days to help CSF staff draft their ideas into a framework and write four small grant proposals. Two proposals were submitted to UNESCO for the HIV/Aids Campaign and one to FAO for awareness raising on preventing avian influenza. The campaigns were held during the Traditional Water Festival in November and on World Aids Day. The last proposal was submitted to ANZ Royal Bank for the child protection project. As a result, CSF had three proposals approved with fund support of approximately US$ 4,500.00 from UNESCO and US$ 600.00 from FAO for the campaigns. The proposal to ANZ Royal Bank is on the waiting list. With supporting funds, CSF staff and stakeholders were able to organize the campaigns successfully with full participation of the project team, municipality, local authorities, youth volunteers, school teachers, local police and honorable donors. CSF staff said, “Although this is small fund support, we have strategically built relations and trust with UNESCO and FAO staff and we hope to seek more support in the future.” The public campaigns were covered by journalists and released through Kampuchea TV, ABC Radio and the Phnom Penh Post on 13 November.

CWS assisted CSF to hold an awareness campaign on World Aids Day on1 December 2008, at Indra Devi High School


CFED Accountant received certificate of financial management and accounting course

CNGO partners are better able to clarify and understand their financial systems and build trust with donors. Financial accountability and transparency are still high concerns among government, NGO and business sectors in Cambodia. CWS Cambodia has realized that our CNGO partners also need capacity to improve their financial management and accounting systems. Within this reporting period, the Partnership Program in cooperation with Finance Office staff provided training to all CNGO partner leaders and accountants to review and discuss deeper issues during the five-day “Financial Management and Accounting System” workshop for 26 participants (12 women)4. The training included practical exercises on accounting, budgeting and basic financial policy issues. After the five-day course, CNGO staff members were able to differentiate financial management and accounting, budget preparation, bookkeeping and cash flow. Through group discussions, the partners were able to identify their weak points and improve areas. The pre-test result showed that 55% of participants understood only 20-40% of all financial aspects while 45% understood 50-70%. However, the post-workshop test showed a significant improvement: 88% of participants understood from 70-90% of the topics covered, while only 12% understood just 50-60% of them. Soon after the training, CFED and KORCD staff members were able to revise some of their financial policies to make them more transparent. KORCD staff simplified their financial system, making it less time consuming to record bookkeeping and data entry via a computerized system. KORCD is able to produce financial reports on time for the Partnership Project, while its staff members are able to prepare budget and financial report according to a set standard and are able to provide feedback directly to their colleagues on budgeting and recording expenses as well as reporting. CFED has had improved its understanding of financial management and gained more trust from MekongPlus for funding support. In this report period, with technical support from the CWS finance team, a global review of their financial management found that CFED had significantly improved on many areas of its financial management and accounting compared to the previous review. After this positive change, CFED is going to receive funding from MekongPlus of about US$ 20,000.00 for 2009. According to the financial review report written by the CWS finance office, “in our opinion CFED has seen more improvement on financial management compared to the previous financial review, however, there are some areas that need to be improved”.

MAJOR CHALLENGES

CWS has been working with more than 40 partners in different relationship from the three categories stated in the partnership protocol, of which most CNGOs need strong funding and technical programming support from the Partnership Program. Particularly, within this reporting period, one of the partners, CFED had pressure from their donor (Mekong Plus) to carry out a global financial review before it would commit new funding support. CFED found no way to do it except by approaching the CWS finance team to help (at the time CWS finance staff were facing time constraints due to an external audit). However, despite these constraints and in line with our goal of “accompanying” our partners, the field accountant and finance manager took time away from their hectic schedules to conduct the global financial review, and the results were presented to CFED and MekongPlus. This kind of urgent request was not addressed in the 4 “Financial Management and Accounting” was held on 15-19 September 2008 with 26 participants: 5 holistic partners (11 staff, 5 women), 2 non-funding partners (4 staff, 2 women), 5 small grant partners (8 staff, 3 women) and 3 CWS project staff (2 women).


partnership program or finance staff plan and caused time pressure for both finance and partnership program staff. Similarly, while the partnership program staff were already over worked due to being under staffed for local institutional development, CSF had a shortfall of funds and faced program closure. It requested technical support from the partnership program staff to develop proposals and submit them to UNESCO, FAO, and ANZ Royal Bank to seek grants to sustain their organization and programs. At this time Partnership Project staff were already committed to supporting the Children Committee and Khmer Community Development Association (KCDA) to develop their strategies. To accommodate the huge scope of work, however, the Partnership Program Manager intervened to help CSF staff articulate their ideas to develop four proposals. This kind of work needs staff with a high level of professional expertise and plenty of time. The time adjustment impacted other tasks and planning of the overall program work.

LESSONS LEARNED

All funding agencies and donors have concerns about the issues of accountability and transparency among CNGO partners in Cambodia. CFED, one of our graduated CNGO partners, has recently received funding support from Heifer-International Cambodia and MekongPlus. CFED was still one of our targets for improving accounting systems, which was also a condition of their funding donor MekongPlus. If CFED did not properly set up its financial system and carry out the financial audit, they would not have been given more funds. CWS Partnership staff learned that this was very critical and that CFED could lose trust and a donor. CFED could find no one to help them at this risky point. Therefore, following an urgent request from CFED and MekongPlus, CWS Field Accountant, Mr. Sar Heang and Finance Manager, Mr. Seng Vutha, with a guidance from the Country Representative and Director for Programming, carried out the global financial review successfully. The crucial work and positive reference from CWS was very important for CFED to prevent the loss of a funding donor and to increase its profile and reputation among other NGOs and funding donors. It would have been impossible to receive a new financial pledge from MekognPlus without the work from the CWS team. This shows that CWS’s reference is essential to build confidence and trust between funding agencies and implementing partners. Within this reporting period, with a global financial crisis occurring, some CNGOs have shortfalls of funding to support their organization and programming on the ground and Partnership Program staff members have received a huge number of requests from CNGOs for capacity building and funding, while the program has been under staffed. Most requests asked for technical support and capacity building on fundraising, proposal development and strategic planning and other organizational aspects. Therefore, program staff, in this period, have turned their focus from provision of small grants to work on strategic planning, proposal development and fundraising for non-funding partners, in which KCC, CC, CSF and holistic partner KCDA have developed their strategic plan and particularly three proposals of CSF were approved by UNESCO and FAO for public-awareness campaigns on HIV/Aids and Avian Influenza. Working on local institutional development produces immense benefits for non-funding partners. However, this work cannot be done without highly experienced and professional staff who have sufficient time to focus on the intricate work and accompany the partners through the processs.


ISSUES NOT ADDRESSED

Training on Monitoring and Evaluation for 25 partner staff was not conducted during this reporting period and it has moved forward to the next semester due to time constraints of the staff and partners due to donor visits, new projects coming, and the border conflict, etc.

Training on Human Resource and Staff Management were cancelled due to limited budget and tight schedule of the program.

There were 15 proposals submitted to the partnership program and one of them was approved due to the uncertainty of program budget within the period.

2.3. KOMPONG THOM PARTNERSHIP PROJECT

INTRODUCTION

Since it began working with the CNGO Network and other partners in 1996, the project has maintained its focus on institutional development and programming in multi-religious communities. It also provides financial grants to CNGOs. This reporting period marks the second year of working with the Khmer Organization for Rural Community Development (KORCD) as a holistic partner. Project staff provides capacity building for institutional development, with a focus on improving reporting skills, financial management and accounting, and enhancing administrative capacities. Furthermore, they help KORCD implement conflict resolution, non-formal education classes, enhanced agricultural techniques and the formation of elder associations. During the reporting period, KORCD relocated its office to Prampi Makara village, Tang Krasang Commune, Sontuk District, from which it continues to implement integrated community development in 10 target villages spread across three communes (Thnot Chum, Pnov and Tang Krasang) in two districts (Santuk and Baray). The 10 villages are: Tang Krasang, Prampi Makara, Kang Meas Cheung, Kang Meas Tbong, Vaing Cheung, Tuol Chan, Thormneath, Pnov Thom, Pnov Tbong and Tnot Chum Ti Muoy. Residents of these villages total 4,376 families, of which 951 families (3,655 people, 2,308 women) are direct beneficiaries, while the remaining 3,425 families (19,414 people, 9,515 women) are indirect beneficiaries. The Project also provided technical assistance to Cooperation for Indigenous People and Development in Cambodia (CIDC) to prepare its self for applying to become as a CWS holistic partner. Monitoring of the Adsu weaving program was also conducted by Project staff.

MAJOR ACCOMPLISHMENTS AND CHANGES

KORCD has improved its report writing, financial management and administration skills

The Partnership Project Coordinator has continued intensive coaching and one-on-one training for KORCD staff to improve their report-writing skills. Specifically, the Coordinator introduced concepts such as “input”, “output”, “outcome” and “impact” that allowed KORCD staff to more objectively plan, implement and monitor their work. KORCD staff members were also asked to review and reflect on their individual draft reports in light of these concepts and then revise them. The Coordinator reviewed the drafts from each staff member and provided encouragement and feedback. As a result, KORCD staff members are able to write higher quality reports that are more organized, reflective and detailed. These reports provide more precise and comprehensive accounts of activities with detailed descriptions of outputs, outcomes and impacts. To upgrade financial management and accounting, KORCD’s director and accountant attended a Basic Financial Management training session organized by the Partnership Program in September 2008 at our Phnom Penh office from 15-19 September. This was the first formal training session the accountant participated in and she said it enhanced her understanding of financial management and accounting as well as the importance of coding.

KPT Partnership Project 53

“I never attended official training on financial management and accounting before. I worked as an accountant based on a little knowledge. Now, I understand the broader concepts of financial management and accounting, as well as practical skills in preparing budgets and financial reports. I also learnt about the immense value of financial management and accounting, which makes my understanding much clearer and provides me with the confidence to better control budget inflows and outflows.”

Kin Sineng, KORCD accountant Also during the reporting period, the Kompong Thom Partnership Project Coordinator encouraged KORCD to review its financial policies, identify weak points as well as the differences between their previous and new formats for financial reports, and Advance Request Forms. The Project Coordinator guided the accountant through a practice exercise: the accountant prepared a report according to the enhanced format and the Project Coordinator provided intensive feedback. As a result, the accountant is now able to prepare financial reports correctly. During the last two months of the reporting period the financial reports were correct and included sufficient supporting documents. KORCD administration staff was also provided with coaching and technical assistance from our Kompong Thom Administration project staff. With coaching and on one-on-one training, their understanding of administration systems, roles and responsibilities, office management and filing systems were enhanced. Following this intensive coaching and training, KORCD is now able to produce all necessary documents for financial reports, training reports, guidelines and other documents in accessible formats and a well ordered filing system. Enhanced conflict resolution skills lowers domestic violence CWS Partnership Project staff provided technical to help KORCD conduct the three-day (25-28 August) training course “Conflict Resolution Part II” for 30 participants.1 The facilitator, the Partnership Project Coordinator and KORCD staff helped them understand conflict analysis as well as techniques for resolving conflicts, the process of negotiation and reconciliation. After the course, an evaluation was conducted. It found that 80% of participants had deepened their understanding of conflict resolution techniques, which they had already been applying within their communities. Within the reporting period, VDCs and village leaders applied their enhanced knowledge and skills to resolve six conflicts in four villages: five were cases of domestic violence (two cases in Tang Krasang, one case in Prampi Makara, one in Thorm Neath and another in Pnov Thom villages) and one was a land conflict between two neighbors in Prampi Makara village. Mr. Leng Boeun, 60, a former commune councilor in Tang Krasang Commune, used to beat his wife, Mrs. Oak Roeun. Following intervention he expressed remorse as well as gratitude to those who intervened: “I regret what I had did to my wife. It was wrong. I am thankful to the conflict resolution committee who spent their evenings persuading me to resolve my family problem without violence.” 1 30 participants: 6 KORCD staff, 3 community peace volunteers and 21 village residents (14 women).


KORCD staff members report that members of all 10 communities they work in are encouraging them to increase the capacity of conflict resolution committees. Reports by the three commune councils where KORCD works note a significant decline in domestic violence and attribute this to the high commitment of the conflict resolution committees who have received CWS-led training that fuses an analytical component with effective intervention techniques. Committee members become known by village residents through the awareness raising campaigns they implement after their initial training session. Residents involved in conflicts then approach committee members for assistance, but in some cases committee members make the first move. In such cases, committee members are informed about conflicts in their village by other residents. The committee then calls for a meeting to discuss the conflict before approaching those involved. The committee then facilitates discussions between those involved in a conflict with the goal of seeking a just resolution. The lack of policing and legal assistance in remote villages, as well as gender inequality, makes these committees the only viable solution, especially for women who experience domestic violence.

Self help inspires literacy classes

KORCD has been introducing and facilitating Self Help Groups for almost two years. Most members are women who are raising families alone, the absolute poor and vulnerable families who received little or no education during Cambodia’s 30 years of civil conflict. Illiteracy is a major challenge KORCD faces in promoting SHGs, which have proven to enhance social solidarity and mutual help. Weaving programs have been a key activity of KORCD’s SHGs. With technical guidance from CWS, KORCD encouraged and assisted SHG members to start adult literacy classes in Toul Chan and Thormneath villages in August 2008. Two teachers who received certificates from the Education Office in Baray District were selected to provide classes for the SHGs. Although the SHG members are busy with livelihood activities every day, the 37 female members2 are highly committed to these classes. They attend the daily classes from 12 to 2pm. Students of the classes say the ability to read and write has vast consequences. One student said it would reduce the conflicts with her husband and savings group caused by the mistrust that sometimes arises over written numbers. “I really appreciate the help from KORCD staff,” she explained. “The refresher training on bookkeeping3 encouraged the members of the 27 SHGs in the 10 villages who do not read and write. They should spend time to attend the literacy classes after lunch time.”

Case Study: A foundation for new life

“My name Ros Pheap. I am 53 and my wife Mrs. Pal Him is 39. We have seven boys and one girl and live in Kang Meas Tbong village. After we married, we lived in a small hut on a spot of land given by my mother-in-law. We were very poor. We had no education, no permanent jobs and just half a hectare of land for farming that was given to us by my mother-in-law. The land was not very productive because it flooded so much, and often did not produce enough food to feed us. I had to borrow from moneylenders to buy food and fishing nets. They charged very high interest so I had work on construction sites doing jobs like carrying soil to pay the interest. “In 2005, KORCD started to work in my village and introduced a savings group, rice bank, cow bank, vegetable group, and techniques for increasing crop production. They also introduced the village development plan and encouraged poor families to participate in the groups. I joined all the groups. This gave me a chance to participate in village development work and I gained a lot of knowledge about development initiatives. What was really helpful was that I could borrow

money from the savings group with low interest, borrow rice from the rice bank for food and seedlings during the planting season. Because of this I did not have to borrow from money lenders. My wife and I worked very hard to grow other crops, such as potatoes, so that we could sell them to earn more money. Eventually we saved enough to buy wood to build a bigger house in 2007. “I am very happy that KORCD and CWS brought community development to my village, especially the Village Development Committee, Saving Groups, Rice Banks, Cow Banks and Vegetable Groups. I’m also happy that they provided know how on crop production for higher yields. I think I can speak on behalf of my village and say we are committed to higher crop production for better livelihoods and that we can keep doing this. I hope KORCD and CWS keep working with us.”

Villages going green with home gardens

A major cause of malnutrition in children and mothers in rural Cambodia is a lack of vegetables. Traditionally, village residents collected seasonal wild vegetables from their fields or nearby forests for their own consumption as well as sale. However, due to increasing population and deforestation such practices are no longer sufficient to meet basic nutritional needs. The introduction of home gardening techniques has proven to be a sustainable and effective method of improving nutrition and incomes. Home gardens are planted after the rice harvest in the fields, but many households grow them in their yards. With financial assistance from CWS, KORCD has provided training on home gardening and compost making for 25 members (21 women) of new vegetable groups in two villages during the reporting period: Prampi Meeker and Tang Krasang. After the training and support from KORCD, members of the new groups made their own compost and started home gardens. With these new groups, the number of vegetable groups KORCD has facilitated has risen to 10 (142 members, 124 women) in the 10 target villages. The change is visible. Within the reporting period the villages looked very green as most households were surrounded by vegetable gardens. More importantly, home gardens are producing surplus vegetables and herbs that can be sold in local markets to generate income. For example, Mrs. Doha Pat, 37, a SHG member in Vain Cheung village with six children (three girls) grows vegetables and buys more from her neighbors to sell at Taking Krasang market every day. Besides enabling members to cultivate vegetables, SHG loans have provided them with the capital to start raising pigs and launch small businesses.


Elder Association members in Kang Meas

Mr. Cheat Ly, a village development committee member in Vain Cheung village, said that financial assistance from CWS through KORCD to form SHGs and vegetable groups had reduced food shortages by about 90%. Moreover, poor families are able to keep their children in school and repair their homes, he noted. Interviews with vegetable group members found that on average they earned about 65,000 Riles (16 US$) per household each season from selling surplus vegetables. Those who also bought vegetables in their villages to sell at markets said their profit ranged from 7,000 to 10,000 Riles (1.80 to 2.50US$) per day. Elder Associations breathe new life into village development Interest rates from moneylenders average 5-10% per day. When impoverished families face emergencies, such as sickness, they often have no other choice but to borrow at such crippling rates. Unless this cycle of indebtedness is broken there is no escape from absolute poverty. An Elder Association formed in 2005 at Kang Meas pagoda by pagoda members have developed into a group that provides low interest loans to those who need them. However, when it was first formed it lacked sufficient guidelines for distributing assistance. In late 2007, after KORCD received full financial assistance from CWS, its staff, in cooperation with local authorities and the pagoda committee, realized that the Elder Association had great potential to assist community members – especially the elderly, the absolute poor and vulnerable families – when they faced food shortage, sickness and death. Consequently, it started building the association’s capacity and assisting its members to develop guidelines. This initiative began with 50 members of the pagoda and subsequently inspired five more pagoda committees and villagers to establish similar associations in their areas. They visited and learned from the first association. By December 2008, there were six Elder Associations (in Kang Meas, Pnov Thom, Pnov Tbong, Ton Chum, Tool Chan and Thorm neat pagodas) with 298 members (189 women). Combined, the six associations have capital of 5,430,000 Riels (US$ 1,358.00), of which 1,965,000 Riels is from earned interest4. In addition to granting small loans, local residents also received assistance from the associations. For example, the Elder Association in Pnov Thom Pagoda provided 50 Kg of white rice and 50,000 Riels to Mrs. Yea Seng, an impoverished elderly bind woman who lives alone in the village. The Elder Association in Kang Meas provided 20,000 Riels for the funeral ceremony of a widow, Mrs. Chim Trorng, whose three children drowned on 20 December. Case Study: Elders chart new directions for community Yin Sim, 65, is Ajar (laymen) and a leader of the Elder Association at Kang Meas Pagoda. This is his account of the how the association developed: “In accordance with Buddhist tradition, especially old people and pagoda members regularly meet together in the pagoda every Sil Day (holy day) for meditation and to receive blessings from the monks. We also discuss the construction and development of the pagoda. The pagoda traditionally establishes two committees: one for ceremonies and another for boat racing. But the committees had no operating guidelines and were not recognized by local authorities because they had limited understanding of association principles.

4 Loans are provided to members at an interest rate of 3% per month


“In 2005, KORCD started working in our village, building relationships with the pagoda leader, committee, and Ajar and pagoda members. Later, KORCD staff helped form the Elder Association as the pagoda members wanted to improve the quality of life of older people and set a model for the new generation. We also wanted people to build trust and resolve problems in accordance with the Buddhist path, which brings peace to the heart. The Elder Association was established for everyone, regardless of color, position, religion or political party. “We started in 2005 without proper guidelines and with 42 members. Now we have 112 members and total income of 2,970,000 Riels, of which 1,130,000 Riels is shared capital and 1,840,000 Riels interest. With help from KORCD, the association is now recognized by the local authorities with guidelines and a quarterly meeting. Our members are happy as they understand the guidelines and are able to borrow loans with a low interest rate to start a business and support their livelihoods. “I am very happy with KORCD and CWS who have been working in my pagoda, especially for the establishment of the Elder Association. On behalf of Kang Meas villagers, I express our great support and admiration for the work of KORCD and CWS. I wish KORCD and CWS success for all their work and that it will be sustainable.”

MAJOR CHALLENGES

With financial support from CWS and cooperation from the Provincial Department of Rural Development, KORCD has formed 36 VDCs in their target villages. It provides ongoing capacity building on different areas, including management and technical programming. However, the capacity of VDCs is not yet strong enough to provide training for community members or manage their projects independently. KORCD staff, with technical assistance from CWS, has been working hard to train and coach VDCs on project management and monitoring SHG bookkeeping, but progress has been slow. Nevertheless, KORCD still encourages members of groups to attend all trainings sessions and, offers one-on-one assistance. With 80% of Cambodia’s population reliant on farming, rice is the main source of income generation. As the rice harvest occurred during this reporting period, members of groups put their programs on hold so that they could tend to their fields. For example, production by the weaving program plunged during harvest season. The women will continue their weaving in the coming months when they no longer have to farm.

LESSONS LEARNED

With encouragement from our Partnership Project Coordinator, KORCD staff is encouraging exchange visits among SHG members. It believes that such networking is useful and compounds success. These networking events allow members to exchange experiences, skills and knowledge, which they then apply. The number of Elder Associations, for example, has grown rapidly in two years (from one to six) following study tours to the original group.



Although this was not a component of KORCD’s plan, it received a study tour in September 2008 from Foundation Health in Cambodia (FHC), a nongovernmental organization based in Oddar Meanchey province. FHC sent 50 members to observe KORCD projects, including SHGs, Elder Associations, Weaving Programs, Rice Banks and Home Gardening. Group members were eager to share their experiences with the visitors. FHC’s coordinator praised KORCD staff and the communities for sharing their experiences with his group, and he said he and his members were determined to incorporate what they learned from KORCD in their own organization program.

FUTURE PLANS

The Partnership Project Kompong Thom achieved the objectives of its six-month plan for the reporting period. Within the next six months of FY09 the following objectives are proposed:

• Work closely with KORCD, CIDC staff and their target community representatives to visit and learn from other organizations.

• Provide technical support to KORCD to organize an event for International Women’s Day • Work closely with CIDC staff to prepare an implementation plan and monitor it. • Attend national partnership meeting and meetings with CNGO partners. • Provide technical assistance to develop proposals for KORCD and CIDC for FY10 and

submit them to the funding committee. Prepare FY10 log-frame and budget plan.

• Conduct capacity assessment of partner and follow up with discussions. • Continue to encourage and monitor partners’ activities. • Coach and mentor partners to review financial guidelines and restructure when

necessary.

INTEGRATED HUMANITARIAN MINE ACTION MALAI DISTRICT, BANTEAY MEANCHEY

PROVINCE (LOCALITY DE-MINING)


59 MAG Demining Project

3. INTEGRATED HUMANITARIAN MINE ACTION MALAI DISTRICT, BANTEAY MEANCHEY PROVINCE

(Reporting Period: 1 July - 30 September 2008)

INTRODUCTION Malai District in Banteay Meanchey province is situated on the border between Thailand and Cambodia and was the scene of heavy fighting for many years. The K5 mine belt runs through the district, creating a barrier between communities and access to the border and employment in Thailand. There have consistently been around 35 casualties per year according to Cambodian Mine and UXO Victim Information System data. Additionally, the area is targeted due to its proximity to the border town of Poipet where scrap metal dealers are based who target specific communities for the metal found in remnants of conflict.1 The problems caused by mines and unexploded ordnance (UXO) in the ex-battlegrounds of Malai require continuous intervention. Mines Advisory Group (MAG) has sought to address these problems by providing efficient, effective and safe clearance using an integrated Humanitarian Mine Action team under the generous support of Church World Service. The exact sites for clearance within the province were selected by MAG, CWS, the Cambodian Family Economic Development Association (CFEDA), the Provincial Government and the Mine Action Planning Unit, prioritizing areas that, through the clearance of mines and UXO, will have the greatest positive economic and social impact on the residents in the district. MAG provided an integrated response through the continued deployment of one Mine Action Team (MAT) to clear mines and UXO affecting the social and economic development of communities the district. The activities conducted by the team directly enable CWS and its partner CFEDA to implement development activities within this district.

MAJOR ACCOMPISHMENTS AND CHANGES

The following project activities have been conducted: Target sites were selected in Banteay Ti Pir village and Kbal Tumnob village in Ou Sampoar commune, Malai district. The Mine Action Team achieved the following outputs: conducted clearance of 8,083 m² of suspect land in 2 villages* found and destroyed 12 anti-personnel mines removed 11,643 pieces of scrap metal fragmentation from working lanes2

1 MAG uses the term Remnants of Conflict to describe all items recovered and destroyed as part of its humanitarian disarmament activities, which include Anti-Personal and Anti-Vehicle mines, Explosive Remnants of War, abandoned and unexploded ordnance (UXO) and SA/LW. This term has been developed to reflect more accurately the broad range of clearance activities undertaken by MAG 2 As scrap metal gives off the same signal as a landmine, each piece has to be excavated carefully following Standard Operating Procedures, which is both a time consuming and labour intensive process

Success story 47 year-old farmer Mr. Moeun Ry and his laborer wife Chum Rath (47) arrived in Banteay Ti Pir village, Banteay Meanchey in 1998. They have four children, and two daughters still live with them. A former soldier and landmine survivor, Ry talked of the difficulties of living with the continued threat of death or injury from mines and UXO. “I was tired of fighting and thought when we came here that we could settle. We thought we had bought land on which we could build a home, but no, we had bought land contaminated with mines. We worried every day, for our safety and our lives. Life has been very hard for the few people who live here, for something as simple as going to work to earn enough for a bowl of rice we had to face our fear of mines. Nobody went far from the village because of this fear, so we all lived in terrible poverty. My family was very poor. I lost a leg to a landmine I have had to struggle hard to earn enough to support my family. I tell my daughters to do the best they can and be patient in their life.”

However, life is better than before as they now have safe land to farm and grow rice on. Mr. Ry feels that given time the family may even be able to start a small business: “My family and the other villagers would like to say thanks to MAT 16. They cleared land mines often in very difficult conditions to make things much better for the poor people in this community.” Village chief Ream Sopheak expressed his feelings on the effect of clearance upon his community: “I very much appreciate the MAG team who worked to rid our land of landmines. Now many development organizations come here and help us to construct wells and ponds and teach us how to raise pigs and chickens.” INTERNAL TRAINING AND MONITORING MAG field, technical and administrative staff undergo regular training that leads to enhanced levels and quality of support for all program activities. During this reporting period, training took place in Battambang on innovative dual-sensor detection technology and on using Mine lab F3 detectors to support clearance activities. In addition, training on GIS systems for staff from the Information Technology department, the Information Cell and the Grants and Partnerships Office took place in MAG Cambodia headquarters, Phnom Penh in August/September 2008. Field monitoring visits to project operations are conducted by Mine Action Officers, a Standard and Training Officer and a Mine Action Coordinator. During the de-mining period 15 monitoring visits were made to the project sites. During this reporting period and in accordance with MAG’s commitment to safe, effective and efficient operations a revision of SOPs took place. The updated SOPs have been disseminated to all staff and are available in Khmer and English. Briefings on the updated SOPs were delivered to regional staff by the Mine Action Quality Assurance Manager in August. MAJOR CHALLENGES

Developments that have impacted upon the project A number of factors impacted upon program outputs during the de-mining period. A stand down period for holidays of 5 days took place in July/August and a further stand down of 7 working days in September. Operations also ceased under government instructions from 16 July until the end of that month for the national election period. MAG teams undertook additional training activities during this enforced operational stand down. Clearance figures were impacted by minefield conditions. In addition to climatic conditions, dense bush and bamboo clumps hampered progress, as did topography (inclined surfaces) and soil conditions. It should be noted that MAG target figures for clearance are reviewed regularly to reflect operational realities as there are many factors which impact productivity in the variety of deployment scenarios encountered in Cambodia. At the time of writing the proposal for this grant, the figure stood at an estimated 13,200m² per month per team, which was revised to 11,500m² earlier this year and is again under review pending further reduction. MAG endeavors to give realistic figures as indicators, but success should not be judged upon m² indicators alone. As can be seen from section 3.2 above, MAG operations have a profoundly positive effect upon mine-affected communities. This de-mining period also encompassed part of the rainy season in Cambodia and heavy rainfall had a significant negative impact upon operations. Flooding of the minefield which occurred during September severely hampered operations in that month.



MAG teams see firsthand the impact a known threat or suspected threat of a single item of Remnants of Conflict can have on the livelihoods of communities, let alone an entire minefield. Therefore, MAG Cambodia is pleased to report that during this three-month NCE period MAG activities mean that 14 families comprising of 61 men, women and children will be able to have more fulfilling livelihoods through CWS funding of the clearance of 8,083m² of land, while the removal of 12 AP mines has undoubtedly contributed towards saving the lives and limbs of people in those mine-affected communities of Banteay Meanchey province of Cambodia. In summary, during the total 9 month period covered by this grant, clearance of 103,173m² of land by MAG team took place, which represents an achievement of 87% against targets. In the process, 219 AP mines, 2 AT mines and 15 items of UXO have been located and destroyed. Additionally, 45,907 pieces of metal fragmentation were removed from the working lanes. These activities have directly benefited 168 people from 31 mine-affected families.

FMER, FINANCE, ADMINISTRATION AND HUMAN RESOURCES


64Phnom Penh Central Office

4. PHNOM PENH CENTRAL OFFICE

FMER, FINANCE, ADMINISTRATION & HUMAN RESOURCES

Introduction

The Central Office ensures the programs and projects we and our partners implement reach the absolute poor as efficiently and effectively as possible. To do so, staff provide a variety of support functions, including financial management, administration, proposal development for new funding, consolidation of program reporting for funding partners and government bodies, publicizing impacts of program activities, monitoring data collection and collation for the centralized information system, conducting bi-annual full program monitoring, overall management services and technical support for the entire organization. A transfer from each project to the central office covers the cost of these services. For this reason, we include this report with the program reports. One significant point during the reporting period was the amount of time required to prepare for the Ecumenical Funding Partners meeting (“Biannual Square-table Meeting”) held from March 25 to 27, 2009. The preparation for this event took more time and energy of our Senior Management Team than expected. Organizational Development CWS Cambodia values creative approaches to organizational development and problem solving. The seven-year strategic directions adopted by CWS Cambodia provide a clear and coherent agenda guiding the organization and its operations into the next decade. In order to achieve this agenda, the institutional structure and culture as well as organizational approaches have been reviewed to adopt the current development practice. The Community Redevelopment Program is partnered to do a peace alliance exercise with other NGOs involved in peace work in order to learn more about the specific type of work each organization does. This also gave CWS and other NGOs in attendance an opportunity to identify the different organizations involved in peace work with the goal of collaborating with them in future. Planning Each program/department has reviewed logical framework and annual detailed work plans for FY09 by following the format developed from last year to support program activities. Senior Management Team meetings were conducted bi-weekly to handle ongoing issues that related to policies, MoUs with government bodies and international organizations and NGOs, as well as other internal and external issues. A monthly meeting is held by the Program Oversight Group (POG) to address program development, review the specific recommendations identified by the program monitoring team, identify strategic issues challenging the organization and develop specific action plans to follow as well as lessons learned.

In these project and program planning exercises, several options were chosen to:

Address major needs of target groups in isolated and remote areas Have the greatest expertise and capacity in implementation Best fit mission, goals and the mandates of major stakeholders, Obtain resources and make the most effective use of them.


Monitoring & Evaluation The full program monitoring for the second half of FY08 was delayed to 4-29 August from June because the National Election, which was held in July, restricted access for conducting field interviews in target areas. Every project in both the Direct Services and Partnership Programs was fully monitored. This included following up on the agreed actions from the first monitoring, planning, achievements and changes, training packages, program guidelines, quality of work and the effectiveness of each project. Primary data collection was made through interviewing CWS and CNGOs staff members, beneficiaries and related/associated local authorities, while the secondary data was based on available documents (proposals, log-frames, Gantt charts, agreements, and so on) at project and CNGOs offices. The Monitoring Team provided verbal feedback to the projects on the last day of field monitoring based on what was found out through interviews and discussions. The formal presentation made to the Program Oversight Group was impressive. With support from the Country Representative, the monitoring activities were more active and useful. The presentation of specific findings is intended to: Indentify strengths and areas that could be improved Understand monitoring concepts in order to prepare/implement enhanced projects for

evaluation and the future design Focus mainly on the quality of the project implementation and identity of the organization

and funding partners that CWSC is international and professional organization Follow guidelines/standards required by the government as well those developed by

organization and funding donors, Fill the gap which the implementers (programs and projects) do not see because they are

busy implementing activities Improve communication and coordination between project programs and the

organizational level. As result, all specific recommendations for improvement from the first semester monitoring in FY08 were implemented by the respective projects and programs. These results were documented in the FY08 second semester monitoring report. Effectiveness of training provided to partners (Partnership Program) found during first semester monitoring field work.

For this reason, the monitoring tools require revising in advance for each monitoring conducted. The revision is made to absorb changing practices in field activities as well to ensure monitoring tools measure the impact of programs. Reporting During the reporting period, various reports such as the FY08 End-Year Report, a short annual report for FY08 called “Developing in Sight”, two CDC quarterly reports, and UMCOR annual 2008 were produced and disseminated. In CWS-C hired a short-term consultant to assist the reporting unit to produce “Developing in Sight” to ensure it could encapsulate our work in a way that appealed to broader audiences. Five hundred copies were published in late January 2009 and distributed to partners, donors, stakeholders, and other interested institutions in early February 2009.


By working hard and closely with the Government, the CDC quarterly reports produced by CWS-C were recognized by the Ministry of Rural Development as detailed report. This is one instance among others that has helped CWS-C become a highly regarded and well-recognized organization by the Royal Government of Cambodia. This recognition has affirmed CWS-C’s steps towards outputs that focus on priority needs of the Royal Government of Cambodia’s development framework. Website Due to increased duties and workload in the IT section, CWS-C’s website, www.cwscambodia.org, was handed over for further development by the Data Management Officer of the FMER Unit from 26 December 2008. It has been slightly restructured. For example, the option of allowing visitors to select a preferred language was removed as recently uploaded pages are only available in English. The FMER Unit’s Reporting and Proposal Development Officer has proposed a new structure for the website. The design and information flow for the new website structure has already been created, and a more dynamic website will begin its coding by the Data Management Officer soon after approval is obtained from the Senior Management Team and Country Representative. Newsletter To update partners, donors, stakeholders, and other interested institutions about the progress of CWS-C at the field level, a monthly newsletter has been issued since January 2008. So far, seven issues have been released. In addition, five newsletters (“Fact Sheets”) on specific programs (Water and Sanitation, Village-based Development, Partnership Development, Peace, and Humanitarian De-mining) were produced to capture and reflect the reality of fieldwork and the impact of programs on the lives of the most vulnerable residents in remote areas, particularly villages along the border with Vietnam in Svay Rieng province and villages along the border with Thailand in the northwest. Proposal Development No new proposal was developed during this reporting period as most of the proposals were developed and submitted in the previous semester. However, two proposals submitted from last semester were approved for funding support:

The proposal for the Water and Sanitation Cooperation project in Svay Rieng province was approved by UMCOR in their new quadrennial 2009-2012. They committed US$ 50,000 per year.

The proposal for the Battambang/Banteay Meanchey Partnership Project was also approved by UMCOR in their new quadrennial 2009-2012. They committed US$ 50,000 per year.

As a major funding shortfall beyond June 2009 has been identified, particularly for the Partnership Program, Local De-mining and the Water & Sanitation Cooperation Project, CWS Cambodia is in the process of revising proposals for these projects to obtain funding support. The process has been tried through the CWS regional office and other funding support offices. This major funding shortfall was on the agenda for discussion during the Ecumenical Funding Partners “Square-table” meeting for a possible solution.


Centralized Data Management system CWS-C’s Data Management System was designed to collect and collate data from all projects and programs. This collection and collation provides CWS-C with a user-friendly system at the central office that allows staff to easily access data for preparation of report and proposal development. In early September a database structure was designed and over 30 questionnaire forms were used to gather and present data. Sixteen key staff members from FMER, Programs (Direct Services and Partnership) and their Projects participated in a presentation workshop, organized by the Data Management Officer. Through the workshop, feedback from participants was used to redesign and revise some points of the system to better incorporate data from the field level. Completed questionnaires have been sent in hard and soft copies to the Central office for encoding and summarization. This new system is not restricted to data collected from project staff members, but tries to encompass all data gathered from every project/program and office. As a result, information about thousands of project beneficiaries was consolidated, including, for example, the number of wells and latrines installed or upgraded, water filters distributed and the scope of capacity building/education interventions in five provinces. In addition, summarized outputs are sent to management staff for verification before formal use. The enhanced flow of comprehensive, up-to-date and accurate data is gaining momentum. Finance During the second half of FY09 the finance department has performed well on the management of financial implementation, budgeting and cash flow, and has maintained safeguards for financial accounting data and systems. There has been good cooperation from all staff throughout the organization in maximizing resources with a commitment to adhering to the financial policies and procedures. In addition, the finance department provided technical support on financial accounting to finance staff at the provincial level as well as to Cambodian NGO partners. The finance department produced accurate monthly, quarterly and semester financial reports within deadlines. In this semester, the financial report showed expenditures were 80% of the planned budget, indicating that financial and budgeting management was highly effective. Moreover, the department worked well with the external auditor, Pricewaterhousecoopers, which audited EED funding and had an open discussion during the audit exit meeting. The result of the audit findings were that there were no major risks in the financial, budgeting and accounting systems. A new finance manager was recruited in October 2008 to replace an interim finance manager who was subsequently transferred back to his post as Field Accountant. With his wide experience in financial management, the new financial manager has performed well. With daily support from the Director of Programming finance staff are on board and fully functioning.


Fiscal Operations

In the first six months of FY09 the finance department achieved the following:

Promoted financial transparency to individual staff through the organization by making them aware of organizational policies and procedures and ensuring they are committed to comply with them.

Daily financial transactions were carefully reviewed, checked and entered into

financial accounting records on time.

Monthly financial reports were produced on time with accuracy. All managers have been aware of financial monitoring through monthly financial variance analysis.

Quarterly financial reports were produced and submitted to the Royal Government of

Cambodia on time.

The six-month audited financial report of funds from the donor EED for the Kompong Thom and Preah Vihear Community Development programs and annual global audited financial report of the entire CWS-C organization were sent to their appropriate recipients and CWS headquarters on schedule.

The Field Accounting Officer conducted the second financial review of CNGO CFED

in Svay Rieng province. The financial review finding with the positive result that CNGO CFED has a great improvement on financial management; there had no major risk found. In the result of this, the CFED continues to obtain funding from other donor because of great support from CWS Cambodia.

Administration The Administration Office continues to provide a variety of support to CWS-C programs, including the Phnom Penh Central Office. The office is responsible for purchasing of office supplies, equipment, vehicles, renewal of office contract, placing job advertisement and other necessities upon request. The transportation of staff and funding partners, whether using CWS or rental vehicles, is also under the office’s responsibility. It also contacts with government officials in renewal of MoUs as well as requesting vehicle acquisition and license plates, processing of visas and passport extension, logistics arrangement for external visitors, sending reports to CWS stakeholders and providing learning opportunities through internships for local partners for their personnel. Moreover, the office ensures that staff work comfortably, safety and effectively and that the integrity of the organization is maintained in all operations.

Facilities, Assets and Technical Support

Three lease contracts (the Phnom Penh office and field offices in Preah Vihear and Battambang) were renewed. In cooperation with the IT officer, several replacement desktop and laptop computers were purchased for the program and projects. Nine motorbikes were purchased for the Svay Rieng, Kompong Thom, Battambang and Preah Vihear projects. The process of registering motorbikes and obtaining appropriate license plates was made to the relevant government department for approval and took longer than expected.


All fixed assets in the Phnom Penh, Kompong Thom, Svay Rieng, Battambang and Banteay Meanchey, and Preah Vihear offices were maintained and taken care by the administration office. IT Server Security and System Upgrade On June 12, 2008, the capacity of the computer system was reviewed in our PHP office, aiming to increase the performance of computers for each employee. With the approval of the Country Representative each department has upgraded its computers to function at a faster speed and improve the efficiency of each employees work.

On September 3, 2008, a Backup Domain Controller (BDC) was installed and tested in the IT department in order to ensure that the Primary Domain Controller (PDC) was up and running. A BDC could authenticate the users in a domain, but all updates to the domain (new users, changed passwords, group membership, etc) could only be made via the PDC, which would then transfer these changes to the BDC in the domain. Network and Internet Installation for CWS/SVR, CWS/KPT, CWS/BTB

Previously, these three projects had many problems with their email systems, printing, sharing documents, and virus infections from using flash drives from outside sources. Email systems posed a special problem because they relied on dialup connections, which provided only speeds of 20kbps maximum. In the last three weeks of December 2008, a new Internet connection was installed with the speed of 128kbps maximum and a network connection for these three projects to reduce connectivity problems. For security reasons, all computers are hooked to the network and Internet, but only key staff (project managers or project coordinators) have internet access. Building Capacity of CWS staff and Partners The IT unit conducted a three-day training session for CWS Partners (14-16 October 2008) at CWS’s Battambang Office with eight partner staffs from Kompong Thom, Battambang, Banteay Meanchey and other provinces. The training provided focused on information, communication and technology (ICT), but the main goal was to transfer general knowledge about viruses and maintenance of computer systems by focusing on the following topics: hardware and software, viruses, identifying a common type of virus extension, anti-virus protection software, updating virus definitions, troubleshooting software errors and maintaining computer systems.

Health and Accident insurance for CWS staff and vehicles: Newly recruited staff have been signed up with the insurer (Forte) for illness and accident claims and shown how to claim reimbursements for medical expenses.

Country Context Affecting Operations Security: Cambodia has achieved a relatively stable peace and has entered its 11th year of relative political stability. The security situation in Cambodia related to the civil war is over. However, human rights abuses and criminal activity are still considered a main area of concern. In addition to politically related attacks, retribution and revenge continue to permeate the overall climate. There are worrying signs of tension between Cambodia and Thailand over Preah Vihear Temple that could escalate into war. It is a hot issue in Thai politics and the dispute has arisen from a misunderstanding of a judgment by the International Court of Justice in June 1962 on the part of Thai successive government and politicians. The tension has been exacerbated by incorrect and fraudulent statements made by Thai partisans. More than 1,000 troops were engaged in a stand-off at the ancient site last year for several months. Tensions rekindled, and erupted into open combat on July 15. Three Cambodian and one Thai soldier died in exchanges of fire. The clash, near the ancient temple, has prompted Thailand to urge its nationals to leave Cambodia. Tension has been high since July, when hundreds of soldiers on both sides faced off meters apart. Both sides have said they want to find a peaceful solution and will hold talks to discuss the conflict. Accordingly, only a small contingent from each side would remain at Preah Vihear temple.


This tension directly affected to the operation of CWS Cambodia programs for a full month in July and August, 2008, particularly the Preah Vihear VBCD project as well as partnership project in the north-west provinces including: Battambang, Banteay Meanchey and Odor Meanchey. All staff based in Preah Vihear were relocated to a temporary to base in the Kompong Thom VBDC project until an assessment of the security situation found it was safe to return. All operations of the partnership project in the north-west provinces were postponed more than one month until security along the border stabilized. Staff members were restricted from field work while an assessment of the security situation conducted by CWS-C was conducted. Two security assessment teams visited the two areas to assess the situation. The operations along the border of Thailand returned to normal after August and staff members returned to work.

Dengue-related deaths plummet in Cambodia in 2008: Only 65 people died from dengue fever in Cambodia in 2008, down from 407 last year thanks to preventive measures taken by the government and international agencies, a Health Ministry official said. Dengue is transmitted by mosquitoes and causes fever, headaches, agonizing muscle and joint pains, and in serious cases internal hemorrhaging and profound shock. It infected 9,300 people during last year compared with more than 40,000 in 2007, the highest in nearly a decade, said Ngan Chantha, director of the health ministry's anti-dengue program. Website: http://tvnz.co.nz/health-news/dengue-related-deaths-down-in-cambodia-2431527 (However, the dramatic decline in cases in Cambodia last year was in line with regional trends and some epidemiologists who map outbreaks of dengue say they tend to occur in 3-5 year cycles (as the prevailing serotype of the virus changes: there are four serotypes). Cambodia’s health infrastructure remains inadequate to cope with major outbreaks and preventive interventions, especially community-based education that changes behaviors, must be applied constantly, they say. Water storage jars used in rural areas are the primary breeding ground of the dengue-transmitting mosquito in Cambodia.)

Road Accidents: Traffic accidents are becoming increasingly common in Cambodia, with collisions between motorcycles and automobiles causing a high causality rate. In September 2008 an estimated 1,970 casualties were reported by the participating hospitals, health centers, private clinics and traffic police departments in the 24 provinces. Among them, 538 sustained severe injuries and 129 died. In Phnom Penh alone, 531 casualties were reported, marking a 10% increase over September 2007 and a 24% increase over the previous month. Among them 18 died: 33% of the fatalities were workers, followed by students (17%), house keepers/servants (17%) and motor taxi drivers (17%). Almost half of the fatalities in Phnom Penh, 44%, were between 20 and 24 years old, compared to only 20% in province. About three quarters, 73%, of all fatalities occurred on national roads. The highest daily number of casualties were reported during the Pchum Ben holiday (28-30 September), with a peak of 129 causalities on the 29th, twice the daily average for the month. In total, 292 people were injured and 20 died during the three-day holiday. (See RTAVIS monthly report on September 2008 at www.roadsafetycambodia.info and www.cnctp.info.) Human Resource Management The Human Resource Department is responsible for managing the implementation of employment policies and staff development of the organization; to ensure the personnel procedures are accurate and the organization complies with the Cambodian Labor Law. The Human Resource Manager oversees staffing requirements to ensure the whole organization is functioning at optimum conditions.


As previous 6 month report, SMT had met with all staff to brainstorm of their concern related to inflation that direct affect to the daily living of staff. The follow up actions was undertaken to conduct salary survey with other 7 international NGOs. The data and other need information had been selected, identified and finalized. The tasks had been assisted from external consultant and expect to complete in July 2009. The conclusion result will detail in the next report.

Staff Development

As a learning organization, all staff members are encouraged and supported to develop their capacity based on their actual training needs to perform their work effectively. Internal promotions are also encouraged. This has been taken into consideration when each staff development plan is undertaken, looking at the possibility to help them gain more knowledge and skills to move forward in their career. Moreover, all staff members have the opportunity to attend either short training courses or continue their academic study, and are able to attend short training courses abroad based on their work requirements. Internal CWS Training

Three different internal training sessions were conducted for 54 CWS-C staff members to further enhance and strengthen knowledge skills (one staff member might attend two or three sessions). The full list is in Table 1 below. External Training Three different external training sessions in Cambodia were attended by 13 staff members, including eight senior management members on Gender Discrimination and Advocacy at the Advocacy and Policy Institute, four project managers on Leadership Development Program in VBNK and one executive assistant attended an English training course. The full list is in Table 2 below External workshop or conference

Sixteen staff members visited “House in Battambang Province in the Past” at Reyum Gallery, and seven staff attended the Khmer Rock Opera “Where Elephants Weep”. The purpose of the exposure visits was to orient young Cambodians generation about Khmer culture and new creative directions. The full list is in Table 3 below. Scholarship support

CWS-C provides partial and financial support to staff members for their academic study, which is relevant to their current work as well as for their future career. Some staff members are continuing their academic study this semester: one for a BA in English, one is studying Finance and Banking, and one started a Master’s in Development in October 2008. The full list is in Table 4 below. Local Institution Development: CWS-C has provided learning opportunities through internships to two trainees from a local partner, Cambodian Women’s Development Agency, for office skills practice. The trainees completed a three-month short course on office skills through working closely with the Receptionist. They learn basic office skills: answering phone calls, sending faxes, taking messages, greeting visitors, typing and copying documents for staff. Since LID started, 17 interns (women and men) have found employment elsewhere after completing their internship with CWS-C.


Overseas Conferences

The program coordinator for Peace participated in the six-day “Action Asian Peace Builders” forum in Kathmandu, Nepal from 16-23 October 2008, organized by Action for Conflict Transformation. The forum was critical for sharing and learning, as well as aligning strategies and developing the capacity of peace workers and activities to a higher level. It also provided an opportunity for peace workers to rejuvenate their personal commitment, focus and energy, and to build important networks for developing their national work. The full list is in Table 5 below.

Implementation of Staff Policies

All staff members are expected to understand that the National Staff Policy applies to them in full when they are dealing with personnel issues. During this semester period, the Senior Management Team has amended in the National Staff Policy to add a condition to the Provident Fund. The new condition is that if an employee resigns without giving CWS the required notice under the Cambodian Labor Code, CWS has the right to disburse only the employment share. However, if a project closes employees are entitled to receive full compensation from the Fund independent of the two-year requirement. The Senior Management Team has also amended the Driver appraisal form and policy to make it compliant and consistent with other staff appraisal forms. The new form includes full instructions, comments from staff and supervisors on each section (i.e. driver professionalism, interpersonal skills) as well as open questions from the employee. The Senior Management Team also amended the CWS-C Identity Card for 2009. The new card adds a Khmer version logo on the front and in color. The Human Resource Department is also working on a new database for personnel data, including leave queries, attendance, and other important information.
