Analyzing Development Issues Centre - ADIC

Analyzing Development Issues Centre (ADIC) is a Cambodian policy and development agency providing civil society organizations and community leaders with the information and skills training necessary to meaningfully contribute to Cambodia’s development. ADIC's mission is to become a leading research and learning agency working with vulnerable communities and key development actors to analyze current development issues and co-create innovative and long-lasting responses.

The Analyzing Development Issues Centre (ADIC) was registered with Cambodia’s Ministry of the Interior on 4 April 2011. ADIC began from the Cooperation Committee of Cambodia (CCC)’s Analyzing Development Issues (ADI) Project in 1999 and transformed as an NGO in 2011. ADIC’s initial goal was to increase the critical thinking skills of NGO staff and their capacity to analyze development issues through development research that contributes to beneficial social change in local communities. Grounding its work in Cambodian economic and social realities and aspiring to fill the niche left open by the ADI Project phase out, ADIC has continued to support NGOs in participatory action research (PAR) and policy studies with vulnerable groups in poor and food insecure provinces. ADIC will likewise continue to democratise policy research and to bridge the gap between policy researchers and NGO development practitioners.
