Mission
The organisation's mission is to promote and strengthen Cambodian civil society actors by initiating action, by cooperating with and supporting them, and by providing means for a common voice for those groups so that they may advocate for democracy.

Since it was founded, STAR Kampuchea has become a well-known and respected organization. STAR Kampuchea’s keyword is advocacy, which stands for the organized efforts and actions using the instruments of democracy to establish and implement laws and policies that will create a just and equitable society. A society with state of law, democracy, justice and prosperity.
