3 I. Presentation of project to be evaluated and its context 1) Project background Country context Violations of land, housing and natural resources rights remain widespread in Cambodia. Eighty percent of Cambodia s population rely on the land and natural resources for their livelihood. During the Khmer Rouge regime, land ownership documents were destroyed. After the fall of the Khmer Rouge in 1979, land remained the property of the state until the Constitution of 1989, under which people were given possession rights for agricultural land. Even so, formal ownership documents were not issued, giving rise to widespread land and natural resources insecurity. The Land Law of 2001 contains provisions that, in theory, protect land dwellers rights. Article 5 holds that land deprivation can only take place following specific procedures and where adequate compensation is awarded to evictees. The law also provides that, even for occupants with no or insufficient title, evictions can only be made by court order upon the request of the person who claims the property, and that the court must verify and validate such a claim. These provisions have not been sufficiently implemented. Nor have the provisions regarding indigenous groups claims to collective land ownership rights, which are relatively difficult to achieve, especially for indigenous groups in remote areas who lack information and organization. By the end of 2012, the government had granted Economic Land Concessions (ELC) to private companies, amounting to more than 2,500,000 hectares, leading to widespread forced evictions. Civil society organizations including ADHOC have repeatedly denounced the devastating social and environmental impacts of economic land concessions (ELCs) and advocated for the land to be returned to the affected communities. Recognizing the scale of opposition to ELCs, a moratorium was issued by the government in May Although this has reduced the number of ELCs being granted, it has not been without problems. The moratorium does not include concessions already under discussion before it was signed, and the lack of transparency around the concession process means this has been a useful loophole to circumvent the moratorium. However, in 2013 only few new concessions have been granted, and land-redistribution to rural poor through the Prime Minister s land-titling campaign implemented by youth volunteers and the granting of social land concessions has been set as a priority on the government s political agenda. Nevertheless, abuses, irregularities and a widespread lack of transparency have been reported both with regard to the land-titling scheme and the granting of SLCs. The consistent increase of number of SLCs granted in 2013 (five times the number of SLCs granted in 2012) raises concerns as in many instances local residents have been evicted to make way to social land concessions. 2) Presentation of the stakeholders Catholic Committee Against Hunger and For Development (CCFD-Terre Solidaire): CCFD-Terre Solidaire, the French Catholic Committee Against Hunger and For Development, was created in 1961 and is an officially registered non-profit organization. It has set itself two missions: supporting local partner organizations in countries of the South and Eastern Europe in their development actions, as well as heightening the awareness of public opinion regarding the situation of developing countries. CCFD-Terre Solidaire currently provides support for more than 500 partners in 80 countries. CCFD is partnering with ADHOC in Cambodia since In 2011, CCFD decided in common agreement with ADHOC to focus its support on ADHOC Land program (while continuing to support other activities of ADHOC such as human rights victims legal aid and prevention of gender-based violence). In 2012, CCFD and ADHOC have applied to an EU funding allowing them to developing new actions through a common project entitled Working together to provide access to justice for the poor and vulnerable in Cambodia, with a particular focus on land and women s rights. This project will run from 2013 to 2015 and allow ADHOC to benefit from extended resources to implement its activities

4 and developing new ones such as joint investigations and capacity building of cadastral commissions, extended legal assistance to land grabbing victims and advocacy work on the Land issues. ADHOC- Cambodian Human Rights and Development Association The Cambodian Human Rights and Development Association (ADHOC) is an independent, nonpartisan, non-profit and non-governmental organization. It is Cambodia s oldest human rights NGO. It was founded by a group of former political prisoners in December 1991, shortly after the signing of the Paris Peace Agreements, which put an end to the Cambodian civil war. It began operating immediately, thanks to donations, and soon secured funding from European donors. ADHOC envisions a society that respects human rights and law. ADHOC s mission is to strengthen the capacity of ordinary citizens, to empower them to defend and realize their rights, and to lobby and advocate for better governance and respect for human rights and the rule of law. ADHOC s goal is to bring about changes in policies and practices of democratic institutions, in particular the judicial system, and to strengthen civil society. ADHOC focuses its strategy on structural, long-lasting change. One of its key aims is to bring about a decrease in impunity and abuses of power. ADHOC s field presence is unique amongst Cambodian NGOs, with offices in 22 provinces/municipalities (out of 23) covering all of the country s districts. More than twenty years after its foundation, ADHOC continues to be run by and for Cambodians. It has adjusted its programs to changing contexts while maintaining a strictly non-partisan stance. ADHOC s work is divided into three programs: the Human Rights and Legal Aid Program, the Land and Natural Resources Rights Program, and the Women s and Children s Rights Program. ADHOC also implements a Khmer Rouge Tribunal (KRT) Project. A fourth program was created to implement new mediation (Alternative Dispute Resolution, or ADR) activities. The Human Rights Program investigates and deals with complaints from victims and relatives of victims of human rights abuses, such as extrajudicial killings, illegal arrest and detention, torture, physical assault, or crack downs on peaceful protests. The rights violations either result from direct actions by state bodies and officials or from inaction (i.e., inability or unwillingness to take positive steps to uphold rights). The program also provides support to human rights defenders, community representatives and activists who are wrongfully arrested and charged as retribution for their peaceful activities. The Women s and Children s Rights Section investigates cases, supports victims, empowers women, educates people and local authorities on women s rights, and works with relevant authorities for the promotion and protection of women s rights. It contributes to long-term social/behavioral change and fights discrimination and the culture of impunity by encouraging people to report gender-based violence and abuses. The Land and Natural Resources Rights Program investigates cases and empowers victims and potential victims of land grabbing and encroachment on land and natural resources, so they can assert and defend their rights. Support to victims has a lasting effect on their mindset, increasing their willingness to protect their own rights and to report abuses, challenging power imbalances. The program also organizes advocacy workshops with both communities and the authorities at the local level. All programs implement ADHOC s three main types of activities: (a) Investigation and intervention (in the form of legal aid and material/social/legal/medical assistance); (b) Empowerment activities (capacity-building trainings, meetings, network-building); and (c) Advocacy work. In addition, the ADR Program implements mediation activities. The KRT Project implements a range of activities in relation to support to Civil Parties to the Extraordinary Chambers in the Courts of Cambodia and their legacy. ADHOC is the operator in the field and responsible for implementation of the activities and management of the project, via its employees and the resource-persons (experts, trainers, etc.) whom it might call on.

5 3) Description of the project underway and the context a) Background to the program ADHOC has been working on land and natural resources issues since 1999, monitoring and investigating cases of violations, raising awareness through its publication and radio programs, advocating for new laws and their effective implementation. In 2011, a project proposal has been submitted to the EU delegation of Cambodia including a focus on land issues faced in Cambodia and Alternative Dispute Resolution mechanisms contributing to find resolution without the Cambodian court system (Working together to provide access to justice for the poor and vulnerable in Cambodia, with a particular focus on land and women s rights). This project has started in January b) ADHOC Land department objectives The main objective of this program is that the land and natural resources situation in Cambodia is improved through assisting victims and ensuring fairer processes of land dispute resolution, with active participation from the victims and relevant government institutions. Specific objectives are as follows: i) To bring serious land disputes to the attention of government representatives, lobbying for resolution and creating a dialogue between the government and the affected people on the ground 1 ii) To strengthen in- and out-of-court dispute resolution mechanisms, building dialogue and cooperation between the local authorities and grassroots communities (see also the chapter on ADR) iii) To aid victims in getting their land back or fair compensation through non-violent and peaceful means iv) To empower people affected by land and natural resources rights violations, providing them with greater understanding of their rights, relevant laws and means of accessing justice The objective of the impact evaluation is to assess if the implementing strategy used from 1999 by ADHOC to reduce the land grabbing and protect the victims have to be improved. The strategy proposed and implemented in the UE-CCFD project is describe in the following paragraph (c). c) Activities and main expected results (project strategy) Expected results of the EU-CCFD project: 1. Fairer processes of land dispute resolution with active participation from the victims and cadastral commissions. (included in the EU CCFD project). Indicator of achievements: All communities affected by land conflict trained by ADHOC (50 per year) are aware of their rights, the relevant law and know how to file complaints to cadastral commissions and the courts, and actively participate in the process. The cadastral commissions (district and provincial) will carry out fair and timely investigations and complaints will be resolved (50 percent of cases). 1 By serious cases ADHOC refers to large cases of land grabbing and forced eviction, usually as result of ELC or general development by large companies. In these cases whole communities are affected. For one case

6 An increased number of victims receive their land back or fair compensation due to strengthened cadastral commissions and fairer court hearings (50% by the end of the action, 29% in 2010) Average 120 cases (average 120 families per case) of land disputes handled per year 80% of Cadastral commissions implement at the end of the project the recommendations from the "best pratices manual" Main activities: Activity 1: Community empowerment through training on how to protect land rights and to utilise land dispute resolution mechanisms. Provincial staff carries out field mission in chosen communities in order to consult with communities members and build trust. A two-day training is held by experienced provincial staff 23 community facilitators, one for each province. Training topics will include: - Legal rights and procedures that the government should respect - How to file a complaint to the cadastral commissions/ courts (depending on the type of dispute) - Practical skills for advocacy and lobbying During the trainings, communities identify competent and honourable community representatives whose role is to act as facilitators between the communities and the local authorities in order to build strategies to seek resolutions to land disputes and to participate in regular meetings with representatives from other communities, in order to build a platform for dialogue and experiencesharing. 50 training courses per year provided to 1500 community representatives (of whom 40% of women) / 70% of the trainees acquired a very good knowledge 23 Community facilitators to carry out training and 23 local human rights activists Activity 2: Support the victims to ensure their participation for fair mediation process at the cadastral commissions. ADHOC carries out investigations into land disputes, providing cadastral commissions with information; studies details of the land ownership history for each party to the conflict; compile all investigated cases for analysing the nature of conflicts; produce legal argument; develope intervention strategies towards Cadastral Commissions; and follow up the resolution process with the Cadastral Commissions. ADHOC also assist communities embroiled in land disputes to file complaints to the Cadastral Commission. In addition, letter of interventions are sent to relevant institutions and authorities both at the local and governmental level and meetings are organized with local, district and provincial authorities in order to speed up the resolution process. 120 cases investigated carried out by ADHOC provincial monitors. Transport and per diem for investigative trips Activity 3: Joint Investigation with the Cadastral Commissions for fair mediation process at the district level. ADHOC provincial monitors are supposed to carry out two joint investigative trips per case, in order to demonstrate correct methods of investigation- techniques, independence, sensitivity to victims, documentation etc. The findings and results from these investigations, including problems,

7 recommendations, and lessons learned, are meant to be documented by the ADHOC monitors, in order to report to provincial coordinators. The relevant provincial coordinator should then report to central coordinators who will in turn pass information on to the General Project Assistant. This information should be carefully managed and updated by the GPC and his assistant, with a view to producing the best practices manual towards the end of the project. Two investigated trips per case ( 60 cases ) with three cadastral commission staff and two ADHOC staff. Activity 4: Joint investigation with the provincial cadastral commissions for fair mediation and decision process at provincial level Same as Activity 3 One two day investigative trip per case ( 55 cases ) Activity 5: Support the victims in registered land disputes to ensure their participation for fair legal process at the court ADHOC provincial investigators carry out investigation and documentation of cases, with the assistance of human rights activists. ADHOC provincial monitors and project coordinators organize victims to file complaints correctly and ADHOC lawyers provide legal advice and representation in court. The participation of the victims are emphasized to ensure fair processes their testimonies and statements documented and their attendance at court hearings. ADHOC central and 7 regional lawyers 50 cases per year Activity 6: Create a culture of dialogue and trust between authorities and people on the ground, to reinforce trust and cooperation through common workshops and interface meetings ADHOC planned 15 workshops/trainings per year, whereby authorities, village leaders, commune chiefs and provincial governors meet with people on the ground, allowing healthy exchange between the groups, encouraging dialogue and creating the opportunity for community members and victims to ask questions and voice concerns. These workshops are mutually beneficial to authorities and local people. They consist of one-day seminars gathering fifty percent government officers and local authorities and fifty percent victims and community representatives, and conclude with a list of recommendations for resolution/prevent of land disputes. ADHOC central office staff facilitates proceedings, introducing speakers, chairing disputes and managing questions and answers. Present at the workshops is relevant provincial staff, the President of ADHOC, the regional lawyer and at least four human rights activists. Local NGOs are invited to observe the seminar and to participate in the small group discussions. A follow-up is ensured through non-formal meetings between community representatives and local authorities on processes of conflict resolution, in order to monitor the implementation of recommendations raised in the workshops, encourage local authorities to continue to implement the recommendations, understand the reasons why the recommendations are not followed, and to try to find new strategies.

8 15 provincial workshops per year 20 trips from Phnom Penh to provinces organized at provincial level (direct intervention and /or follow up from workshops) Activity 7: Joint investigation with the Cambodian human rights commission (CHRC) in serious cases to strengthen the investigation capacities of CHRC ADHOC central office staff- land rights project coordinator and two human rights monitors jointly investigate with three CHRC staff, building their capacity and demonstrating the techniques and ethics required. Two investigative trips are be carried out per case. ADHOC provides transport and per diems as an incentive for CHRC cooperation. Ten trips (5 selected most important cases) of joint-investigations with Cambodian human rights committee Activity 8: Develop and disseminate a "best practices manual " based on the joint investigations and the common workshops at district, provincial and national levels At the provincial level, ADHOC staff pass on information to their land rights coordinator, ensures that this information reaches the central office EU manager in charge of land related activities. The General Project coordinator, with help from his assistant, is responsible for checking all this information and using it in reports and best practices manuals. The information and results gathered from joint investigations and workshops is used for the formulation of a best practice manual based on investigation methods and issues arising during workshops and interface meetings. The manual will outline the outcomes of joint investigations, recapping on lessons learned by the cadastral commissions (district and provincial) and the CHRC. It will provide recommendations to local authorities, cadastral commissions and the CHRC on how best to relate to direct and indirect victims, on sensitivity and ethics, and on investigative techniques. The publication of such a manual is aimed at ensuring the sustainability of ADHOC s activities through providing a useful reference for the reform of mentioned processes. Feedback questionnaire Independent consultants (One national, one international) to liaise with participants and document results Printing and publication (500 copies x 30 pages) Crosscutting activities / alternative strategies: 1. Community empowerment a. Community network meetings ADHOC organises meetings for selected community representatives to report achievements and constraints, to share experiences, to identify problems and improve their management capacity. Purposes of the meetings are: - Sharing experience and lessons learnt among communities concerning problem analysis, possible strategies and advocacy activities

9 - Strengthen community network through promoting dialogue among communities in dealing with their issues 30 meetings for selected community representatives b. Regular meetings Regular meetings are organised in order to report achievements and constraints, to share experiences, to identify problems and improve their management capacity. One ADHOC trainer will facilitate this 4-hour meeting. There will be approximately 10 participants per meeting. Problems will be analysed and advice given on how to address issues in their communities. Bulletins, posters and other printing materials about land, forestry and fishery laws, ELC sub-decrees and natural resources rights will be distributed to the participants. 42 regular meetings for 800 selected community representatives (40% of the attendees will be women) to report achievements and constraints, to share experiences, to identify problems and improve their management capacity. 2. Use of Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) mechanisms for land disputes resolution Access to justice is problematic in Cambodia due to factors such as high expenses, corruption and impunity. ADHOC has launched a pilot program on Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) mechanisms in order to increase access to justice for the poorest and most vulnerable in Cambodian society through a regulated system of mediation that is closer to traditional means of reaching justice. With the aim of enhancing Alternative Dispute Resolution mechanisms at the grassroots level, ADHOC has engaged in the provision of training on ADR for community representatives since As a result, it has been possible for a remarkable percentage of community representatives to conduct mediation in small-scale conflicts occurring in their communities. ADHOC is currently testing these alternative dispute resolution methods for resolving small-scale land conflicts cases, which mainly related to land grabbing between neighbours. Part of the evaluation shall focus on assessing the effectiveness and impacts of the use of ADR mechanisms to solve land disputes. Two field trips for closer observation and more pointed advice d) Target public ADHOC implements its activities in all Cambodian provinces, targeting a full range of rights holders ordinary citizens, poor and marginalized people and communities, and victims and potential victims of violations of human rights, women s and children s rights and land and natural resources rights. Whenever it is possible and relevant, perpetrators of abuses, state and local authorities, law enforcement (police, military and gendarmerie) officers and land grabbers are also targeted by being involved in meetings/workshops or lobbied to change their behavior and improve respect for the Cambodian law and human rights norms. ADHOC participates in five international networks, ten national ones and has initiated eleven provincial NGO networks. At provincial level, ADHOC leads ten NGO networks for information exchange and occasional joint events around legal and land and natural resources issues. At commune levels, ADHOC community groups have started to link up with other community based organisations. Target groups:

10 50 communities trained per year regarding land rights so they can protect themselves (50% indigenous) 360 Cadastral commission investigators capacity built through joint investigations, as they do not possess relevant skills. Final beneficiaries: Direct: Approximately seventeen thousand families that are victims of land rights abuses, who are unaware of their rights and how to file complaints and who are often intimidated by powerful stakeholders. 160 people provided with legal assistance in defence cases per year- people who have been wrongfully accused- for example land protesters who are arrested and people who fall victim to abuse of power by the authorities, and those who use self defence against someone abusive (mostly wives of abusive husbands)- because they are unfairly treated and cannot afford representation. Indirect: Those who have had, or are in danger of having, their land grabbed; families of wrongfully accused (large portion are women and children); indigenous peoples who are supported for land registration; communities where people have been empowered in their rights, including number indigenous, fishing mining and forestry; district, provincial and national cadastral commissions. e) Role and participation of the different actors In order to achieve the project s objectives, different stakeholders have been integrated, encouraging cooperation. ADHOC organized and facilitated trainings and workshops in targeted communities, providing opportunities for exchange between community members and local authorities (commune chiefs, district governors, and representatives), instilling collaboration and mutual respect. It has been acting as mediator, facilitating meetings between victims groups and government representatives, creating a culture of dialogue, improving democratic processes and tackling impunity. Local authorities can help to mobilize local communities to protect human rights to work together against land grabbing and forced eviction and to help to facilitate ADR. Inputs have been encouraged from the CHRC, the ministry of justice and the National Authority on Land Dispute Resolution. ADHOC have been collaborating with the CHRC and the cadastral commission on joint investigations for very serious land cases, and intervention in other serious cases of human rights violations covered in the action. Civil society organizations at local and international level cooperated with ADHOC in order to built the capacity of local authorities and to tackle human rights abuses.

11 II. Objectives and methodology of the evaluation 1) Justification /Objectives of the evaluation Although ADHOC land program has been implemented since 1999 it has never benefited from specific evaluation. Yet, Land grabbing issues is very extensive and sensitive in Cambodia and requires regular adjustement of civil society groups strategies. After more than 10 years in implementing Land programs and while new financial resources are available to support these ADHOC activities, it is important for ADHOC and CCFD to be provided with a long term impact assessment on this work as well as recommendations to improve in-depth impact of the Land programs on Land grabbing victims and prevention of Land grabbing in Cambodia. The general objective of the impact evaluation is to assess if the implementing strategy used from 1999 by ADHOC (including the UE-CCFD project strategy) to reduce the land grabbing and protect the victims have to be improved. The aim of the impact evaluation is not to measure achievement (indicator) of the EU project (a final evaluation will be done at the end of the project) but the strategy and impacts (social changes) of this strategy. The main objectives are : Impact assessment of ADHOC land program since 2009 Impact assessment of the Alternative Dispute Resolution schemes used for land issues implemented since 2011 Identifying factors of change in the outcome of land grabbing cases Recommendations on improved future strategy for the coming 5 years based on ADHOC strengths and weaknesses as well as the evolving context Suggest indicators of monitoring for long term change processes in Cambodia rural areas Recommendations on improved storage, classification and analysis of data related to land disputes cases 2) Themes to be dealt with a) Starting premises of the project, whose relevancy will be assessed by the evaluators Different issues have been identified by CCFD and ADHOC as impacting the land grabbing, investigation and resolution process and should be assessed by the evaluators so that new strategies can be addressed to face the following challenges : Corruption at the national level and local level Communities solidarity when facing land grabbing Lack of independence from judicial system b) Topics to be dealt with by the evaluators For each topic, the evaluators can base their comments on the (non-exhaustive) questions provided. Have the project s objectives been reached? - Analysis of the results and effects of the project (criteria of effectiveness and efficiency) Has the project had unexpected positive AND/OR negative effects? If so, what are they? Has it been possible to mitigate the negative effects? If so, how? (Impact, Sustainability/Connectivity) How has the project had a positive effect above and beyond the intervention? (effectiveness and perpetuation of the program, Impact, Sustainability/Connectivity)

12 Did the actor use the lessons drawn from the experience? Is the alternative dispute resolution tool useful in land grabbing cases? How can communities solidarity be reinforced through the project implementation? How can cooperation between authorities and CSOs be strengthened? How to optimize storage, classification and analysis of data related to land rights abuses cases? What new ADHOC and CSOs activities and approaches could allow a long term change in terms of land management, tenure and titling? 3) Methodology ADHOC and CCFD would like to explore qualitative impact measuring methodologies based on participatory approaches and with focus to social impact of activities in order to achieve long term change. The evaluation period should run from 3 to 4 weeks including: Review of existing materials: Reading the main existing documents regarding this program including annual reports, midterm evaluation, etc. Discussions, exchanges with the people in charge of the project in ADHOC and CCFD Individual and group discussions with the different stakeholders: land grabbing victims and ADR beneficiaries, local authorities, cadastral commissions, courts staff, other local groups and CBOs, Data analysis on land grabbing in Cambodia A minimum of 2 weeks should be spent in field visits: Workshop(s) on proposed activities/recommendations to be developed in the future and monitoring tools at least 2 days Beneficiaries interviews and main stakeholders interviews Land program ADHOC staff interviews
