Khemara is the Community Project Manager at Sahmakum Teang Tnaut in Cambodia. Khemara’s work involves raising awareness and providing technical assistance to people living in poverty in relation to housing and infrastructure, and urban issues in Cambodia. His work extends to helping the inhabitants of urban areas who have been affected by forced eviction, or the threat of forced eviction by the government and developers. His key role is to support community activists in articulating their concerns nationally and internationally, as well as to strengthen networks in local communities through conducting meetings, forums, trainings and exchanges. Khemara hopes the DTP training will increase his knowledge and skills in human rights advocacy and his confidence in undertaking his current work.
