The NGO community both acknowledges and values the pivotal role that donors play in the development of Cambodia. NGOs also take this opportunity to express support for the Royal Government's commitment to reduce poverty, to improve the quality of life of its people and to strengthen democracy and civil society. 

NGOs are committed to human resource development and building local capacity. NGOs are active in all sectors in Cambodia and provide critical support to the resource starved government social sector programs, contributing financial, technical and material inputs. NGOs working in the social sectors seek to define their role as one that is complementary to the government, rather than substituting the government's role as a provider of public services. NGOs remain eager to collaborate with the government and the donor community in working towards just and equitable development in Cambodia. 

The strength of NGOs lies not so much in providing funding for development costs, as in the ability to mobilize people, particularly at the grass roots level, into organized group action for self-reliance and self-development. NGOs hope to stimulate the promotion of civil society and broad participatory development.
