Welcome to NCDP Handicraft Project


The Retail Outlet project is part of NCDP’s overall program for creating meaningful employment. By giving retail and wholesale market support to – predominantly female - land mine victims, NCDP hopes to improve standards of living and overall economic situations. NCDP supplies artisans with a venue to display and sell their handmade products, which allows them to remain self-employed, but still earn enough to support their families. .


What We Do

This project aims to improve the financial situation and living standards of people with disabilities, particularly women. We support disabled persons in all aspects of handicraft production including design, manufacturing, quality control, and a venue to display and sell their products. This way disabled persons from provinces throughout Cambodia have an opportunity to be self-employed and earn income to support their families.

Every year, we provide direct assistance to approximately 150 people with disabilities to earn an income through the sale of their products, in addition to sub-contracting approximately 450 people with disabilities, which in turn supports approximately 750 family members.

In future we wish to see Cambodian handicrafts reach a high level of quality, which in turn increases the number of retail and wholesale orders both inside and outside Cambodia. We also plan to become a business enterprise that can generate income to support our other activities.


Our Producer

Chin Veasna is now 27, and was born and brought up in a small village in Svay Rieng Province. In 2002, his leg was amputated after disease left him unable to move his leg, which had not been medically treated before as his family could not afford it. He was unable to complete school due to his illness and disability. Veasna had feared that finding employment would be very difficult, however, his fortunes changed when he moved to Phnom Penh, and attended a tailoring programme for disabled people. Within the year, he secured a position working with NCDP making handicrafts. He met his future wife, Peach Pov, who is also disabled by a motorbike accident at NCDP, and since, they’ve married and had their first child. Through the wages paid by NCDP – about $100 USD per month – they are able to support themselves and their baby. They hope to be able to set up their own business in the future.
