At This Life, we’re all about community. Our work focuses on three key areas in Cambodia:

• Children and Families
• Communities
• Impact, Learning, and Effectiveness

We partner with communities that face some of the biggest challenges but also have the passion and determination to create change. What they often need are the tools, training, and support to tackle their unique issues.

Our approach is simple: we work alongside communities, listening to their concerns and helping them build the skills and infrastructure they need to break the cycle of poverty. At the heart of everything we do is the belief that change works best when it’s led by the community itself. We listen, engage, and advocate side by side with children, women, families, and communities as they shape their own solutions to complex social issues.

Our programs have grown naturally over time, based on the needs communities have shared with us. Many of our programs connect with and support one another, creating a holistic approach to community development. We also ensure there are clear entry and exit strategies for everything we do. Over time, as communities build their own capacity, our involvement lessens, leaving them with the skills to continue independently.

Our mission began in 2007 and Today, This Life is proud to be an award-winning, trusted NGO running eight programs across Siem Reap, Phnom Penh, and Banteay Meanchey. We’re registered as an International NGO in Cambodia and a Public Benevolent Institution in Australia, and we’re Governance and Professional Practice (GPP) certified by the Cooperation Committee for Cambodia (CCC).

We believe communities are the real experts when it comes to identifying their priorities and solutions. Often, they just need the resources to take ownership of tackling their biggest challenges—and that’s where we come in.
