Project Objectives
The overall development objective of the DFGG Project is to enhance demand for good governance in priority reform areas of Cambodia by strengthening institutions, promoting partnerships, and sharing lessons. This is to be achieved by supporting selected state institutions, including the Arbitration Council; supporting non-state actors to develop DFGG programs in partnership with state institutions independently; and promoting learning, awareness raising, and capacity building on demand-side governance approaches in a broader context.
A primary goal of the Support to the Arbitration Council sub-component of the DFGG Project is to contribute to an effective governance environment by enhancing the extent to which a well-functioning labor arbitration system builds workers’ and employers’ confidence that disputes will be resolved effectively and fairly. The DFGG Project sub-component will sustain, strengthen, and allow the scale-up of the Arbitration Council’s capacity to effectively mediate and resolve labor disputes. It will improve the institution’s research and analytical capacity; provide effective tools and access to specialized technical assistance; expand its services to other geographic and economic sectors; expand training, outreach and dissemination programs; and strengthen the Arbitration Council’s institutional and financial sustainability.
