NGO-CEDAW’s role is to monitor and promote the implementation of CEDAW in Cambodia and to engage in advocacy following the publication of each NGO Shadow Report. NGO-CEDAW now comprises a coalition of more than 30 NGOs and has significant networks dedicated to the advancement of women. The organization has a strong background in conducting awareness-raising and capacity-building activities for its members. NGO-CEDAW also regularly organizes trainings on CEDAW for students, NGO workers, and officials. NGO-CEDAW has substantial experience in effective program management. NGO-CEDAW has also established a good relationship with the government. Significant results of such collaboration include the adoption of many of its recommendations into the official CEDAW report and influencing the Ministry of Women’s Affairs in its decision to adopt the Law on the Prevention of Domestic Violence and the Protection of Victims in 2005 as well as the anti-trafficking law of 2008. Responding to advocacy from NGO-CEDAW, the Ministry of Interior adopted a people-friendly civil registration system. With the prompting of NGO-CEDAW, the National Assembly finally ratified the Optional Protocol on CEDAW in 2010. Recently, NGO-CEDAW worked with the government to recommend amendments to the domestic violence law.
