About Bridges Across Borders Cambodia
Vision
We envision a just society in which human rights are respected, protected and fulfilled for everybody equally, and where people live in harmony with our environment.
Mission
Bridges Across Borders Cambodia is a grassroots organization working to bring people together to overcome poverty, injustice and inequity in Cambodia. We build bridges across borders by:
- Raising global awareness of the pressing issues facing the most vulnerable people in Cambodia
- Facilitating people-to-people exchanges, solidarity actions, and volunteer programs
- Supporting local initiatives for social justice, inclusive development and the protection of human rights
- Teaching creative, non-violent methods of resolving conflict
Goals
The overall goal of Bridges Across Borders Cambodia is:
To transform the national development model into one that respects, protects and progressively fulfills the human rights of the Cambodian people.
Our interim goals for 2010-2012 are:
- Global awareness is raised and international solidarity is fostered around the pressing issues facing poor and marginalized Cambodian communities.
- Poor and marginalized communities are motivated, organized and effectively supported to overcome their common problems and reach their full potential.
- Cambodians are better informed and equipped to defend their rights and advocate for just development and good governance.
- The government, development partners and private sector improve respect for land, housing and natural resource rights.
