Ponlok Chomnes Program would like to share “Research Quality Standards” that illustrates differences between basic, good, and high-quality, inclusive standard.

High quality research is crucial in public policy process and consultations because it provides necessary data and analysis for decision makers. Local research organisations and Civil Society Organisations (CSOs) have a critical role to play in cultivating an evidence-informed policy-making ecosystem. Their close connection to local communities, networks, and priorities makes them best placed to produce knowledge.

Ponlok Chomnes Program is committed to strengthening the capacity of Cambodian organisations to produce quality research. When local institutions are equipped with the skills, resources, and institutional support to lead high-quality research, they are better positioned to respond to emerging policy needs and contribute to a stronger, more resilient knowledge ecosystem in Cambodia. High quality, ethical research can increase transparency, accountability, and public trust. More inclusive research is necessary to generate robust evidence and ensure that development efforts are grounded in the lived experiences of all Cambodians.
