IDPoor Photo

IDPoor Photo facilitates the process of taking pictures of IDPoor beneficiaries.

The IDPoor Photo App facilitates the process of taking pictures and fingerprints of IDPoor beneficiaries and to synchronise this data with the national IDPoor database.

Since 2006, the Ministry of Planning (MoP) of the Royal Government of Cambodia implements a poverty identification mechanism called ‘Identification of Poor Households’ or ‘IDPoor’. It is part of the Royal Government of Cambodia’s ongoing efforts to reduce poverty and support socioeconomic development throughout the country. IDPoor uses a hybrid model to combine the objectivity of a proxy means test survey with the accuracy and affordability of a community-based selection process. The programme provides regularly updated information on poor households to a large number of Government and non-governmental agencies to help them target services and assistance to the poorest and most vulnerable households.

The IDPoor Programme is supported by the German Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ) and the Australian Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade (DFAT), implemented by Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH.
