FOUR CORE VALUES

CSF leads its work according to four fundamental principles; Equity, Accountability, Solidarity and Collaboration.

1.Equity
We believe in working together to safeguard the equity of all Cambodian children and their fundamental rights. We pledge to maintain and uphold a deep understanding of Cambodian culture as well as its societal customs and beliefs. We pledge to work within this cultural knowledge in our efforts to protect from all forms of abuse and exploitation, healthcare related issue too.

2.Accountability
We believe in operating with transparency and integrity at all levels of our work. We stress the importance of professionalism, trust and responsibility in all our efforts, partnerships and activities.

3.Solidarity
We aim to give a voice and be advocates for those who are unable to have their voices heard. We aim to defend those who can not protect themselves by working for the children of Cambodia against abuse and exploitation; and healthcare of children.

4.Collaboration
We strongly believe that it is essential for networking to collaborate and cooperate with each other from national to community level in order to strengthen our voice in fighting child abuse and exploitation in Cambodia. Collaborating with each other is critical in order to increase our effectiveness, help us accumulate more resources, knowledge and the sharing of relevant information in our work to protect children. Collaboration helps us stand united in our shared beliefs and principles.
