<strong>CDRI</strong>’s Mission<br />

As an independent Cambodian development policy research institute, the<br />

mission of the Cambodia Development Resource Institute (<strong>CDRI</strong>) is to<br />

contribute to Cambodia’s sustainable development and the well-being of its<br />

people through the generation of high quality policy-relevant development<br />

research, knowledge dissemination and capacity building.<br />

<strong>CDRI</strong> works to achieve this mission in partnership with Cambodian public<br />

institutions and civil society, and their regional and international development<br />

partners, with respect for the capacity of the Cambodian people and their<br />

institutions, for the value of local knowledge and experience and for Cambodia’s<br />

history and culture.<br />

What We Do<br />

<strong>CDRI</strong> works to produce independent, objective, high quality policy-relevant<br />

development research, to maximise its accessibility to policy makers, influencers<br />

and stakeholders and to have it affect policy in five interrelated areas that are<br />

key for Cambodia’s sustainable development:<br />

• economy, trade and regional cooperation<br />

• poverty, agriculture and rural development<br />

• democratic governance and public sector reform<br />

• natural resources and the environment<br />

• social development.<br />

<strong>CDRI</strong> has as its governing body, an independent board of directors comprising<br />

people of Cambodian and international backgrounds acting in their individual<br />

capacities. <strong>CDRI</strong> management is responsible and accountable to its board on<br />

all strategic, management and financial matters.<br />

<strong>CDRI</strong> undertakes its programmes and projects in partnership with<br />

Cambodian government agencies and their international development<br />

partners, other research and tertiary education institutions and civil society<br />

organisations. To support its research and capacity building, it also offers<br />

library, information and publishing services, and both hosts and participates<br />

in local and international conferences, seminars and training programmes on<br />

development issues. The publishing services, as this catalogue demonstrates,<br />

print and circulate a wide range of publications in both Khmer and English<br />

languages, providing important facts and analyses of current development<br />

issues in Cambodia to a broad readership. Over the years, <strong>CDRI</strong>’s publications<br />

have gained recognition as a valuable resource not only for government, civil<br />

society and the research community, but also for development agencies and<br />

the private sector.<br />
