Sahmakum Teang Tnaut (STT) is a Cambodian Urban NGO working with vulnerable urban poor communities, in Phnom Penh and the provinces, who are affected by land and housing rights issues. Despite two decades of international assistance Cambodia today is marked by deeply inequitable development. Although overall poverty levels are going down, the “development” model has resulted in widespread land and housing abuses and further impoverishment of many of Cambodia’s most vulnerable populations. In a 2023 study by STT 191 urban poor settlements were identified within Phnom Penh alone, which are characterized by poor housing structures, a lack of infrastructure (e.g., electricity, water supply, and waste collection), and access to services (e.g., schools, roads, and hospitals), and tenure insecurity.
STT is seeking a qualified consultant(s) with expertise in climate change adaptation, urban planning, and architecture to address the complex challenges faced by targeted urban communities. The consultant(s) will work collaboratively with STT to develop and implement feasible solutions that specifically target the needs of vulnerable communities (approximately four to six communities).
The consultant(s) will develop a comprehensive guideline for community alternative development plans, focusing on climate-smart design and sustainable infrastructure for urban poor communities. The guideline will be presented as a written technical document, with the page number to be determined during consultations with STT. The guideline could include (as examples,) methodologies such as:
The guidelines will be tailored to 4-6 specific communities using precise case studies. However, it must also be adaptable for use by STT and partners for future, broader implementation. Applicants must demonstrate the capacity to provide and offer innovative solutions – as such solutions could be further implemented, developed, and potentially presented to development partners or local authorities.
No | Deliverable | Description | Proposed Deadline |
1 | Proposal | Outline methodology, strategy, action plan, and budget. | 04 August 2024 |
2 | Community Alternative Development Plan Guideline | This guideline will be a practical resource for implementing small-scale upgrading projects within targeted communities. The specific content of the guideline, outlined in the example above, will be further refined through discussions with the selected consultant. | 30 November 2024 |
3 | Advising Technical Staff for Guideline Implementation | The consultant will guide technical staff in implementing the guidelines for small-scale upgrading projects in two targeted communities. | 15 March 2025 |
4 | Final Report | A concise report detailing the process, project progress, and future recommendations. | 30 March 2025 |

1. Introduction
Sahmakum Teangtnaut (STT) is located in Phnom Penh. STT was founded in 2005 and officially registered in 2006 as a local NGO supporting urban poor communities. “Teang Tnaut” means “palm leave” and palm leaves are used by poor communities to build roofs, and walls for their houses. This is simplistic name was chosen to forever remind STT that its work serves the poorest number of societies. STT started as a small NGO that focused on technical upgrades in poor communities but over the past decade, many communities have been affected by development, eviction, and relocation. As a result, STT has since grown to produce community maps, and research advocacy in order to achieve its goals of helping poor communities realize their rights to land and housing. STT efforts in Phnom Penh alone have reached 270,000 people. STT and its partners have helped communities express their concerns to national and international media donors as well as national and international NGOs.
2. Background
Development is increasing at an unprecedented rate, in Phnom Penh, leading to long-lasting environmental and social impacts. Wasteful and unsustainable housing for the rich, which is routinely undertaken prior to conducting comprehensive environmental and social impact assessments, is undermining the enjoyment of decent housing for the urban poor and contributing to the current climate crisis.
Cambodia comprises the largest youth and adolescent population in the South East Asian region. The involvement of young people in social and environmental development issues has been observed via social media and in groups throughout Phnom Penh. As a result, the youth are critical players in the building and strengthening public outreach and awareness on urban and environmental issues in Phnom Penh, and manifest great potential to drive economic and social development.
We are interested in original research proposals analyzing one of the topics below, from a human rights and environmental perspective:
– Poverty and Human Rights
– Rights of Persons with Disabilities

– Environment and Human Rights
– Environment and sustainability

– Flooding in Phnom Penh
– Good governance of communal development plans in the urban poor community
– Economic of urban poor in Phnom Penh

Sahmakum Teang Tnaut (STT) is a non-governmental organization, non-profitable, was set up in September 2005 and officially registered with the ministry of interior in December 2006. STT tries to reflect in its work with urban communities. From the outset, STT has had a focus on infrastructure upgrading, but over the past decade, many communities have been impacted by development relating to land alienation and evictions. Because of this, STT has strengthened its research and advocacy to draw attention to a development policy that in Phnom Penh alone has led to 270,000 residents being displaced since 1990. By supporting genuine community complaints and grievances, STT and its partners have been helping communities articulate their concerns to local and international Medias, donors and other NGOs and INGOs.
