CIPO has a strong belief that the indigenous peoples (IP), who have in-depth understanding of the local context, can work effectively (with relevance partners/stakeholders) to make real and sustainable change to the IPs society. Co-founded by a woman who is Bunong’s ethnic1 from Mondulkiri province, CIPO is a totally IP-led and managed organization that combines the best knowledge of IPs (locally and internationally) and Cambodian society with the ability to creatively respond to the needs for support from the IPs in Cambodia.
