Cambodian Disabled People's Organisation (CDPO)

Cambodian Disabled People's Organisation (CDPO) CDPO was established in 1994 and working toward becoming the Voice of People with Disabilities

CDPO was established in 1994 as a movement of Cambodian people with disabilities. CDPO is a membership-based, non-governmental organization, representing people with disability in Cambodia and workings towards becoming “the voice of PWD in Cambodia”. CDPO has differentiated itself from other Cambodian disability organizations by building a national network of member Disabled People's Organizations (DPOs)/Women with Disabilities Forums (WWDFs). CDPO does not to provide services or material benefits to DPOs/WWDFs, but rather represents DPOs/WWDFs nationally and advocates for their rights and interests as well as builds their rights awareness and capacity.

What happens when organisations of persons with disabilities have the resources and freedom to lead the change we all want?

Across eight ASEAN countries- Cambodia, Indonesia, Lao PDR, Malaysia, the Philippines, Thailand, Timor-Leste and Vietnam- IDA and the ASEAN Disability Forum, with funding support from Australian Government Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade Stronger Movements, Stronger Futures initiative, support OPD-led initiatives built around collaboration, collective leadership, and locally defined priorities.

The approach is simple but important: follow priorities rather than impose priorities.

The change starts locally, where people live, and systems are shaped.

This means OPDs decide what changes their communities need, how to use resources, and whom they want to work with. Rather than funding organisations in isolation, the initiative supports OPDs to collaborate and transform systems and services for and by persons with disabilities.

More than 194 OPDs are working through partnerships and consortiums across disabilities, generations and communities, bringing different experiences and perspectives together, identifying shared priorities and developing solutions collectively.

This intersectional approach matters. Persons with disabilities do not experience exclusion in the same way. Gender, age, disability, Indigenous identity and other factors can intersect to create different barriers, and those most affected need to be part of shaping the solutions.

From inclusive education and employment to health, climate resilience, access to justice, political participation, digital inclusion, and responsible AI, OPDs set the priorities.

Through the Inclusion Solutions Center, IDA is investing in organisations and projects but, more importantly, in the leadership, agency and collective power of persons with disabilities.

This is authentic OPD leadership, effective representation and collective advocacy translated into sustained solutions for all.

Creating a stronger disability movement and stronger futures for persons with disabilities across the region.
