Banteay Srei is a Cambodian Women's Non-Governmental Organisation that empowers vulnerable women to improve their political, economic and psycho-social situation through implementation of community development projects, advocacy work and encouraging men's participation in addressing issues affecting women.

Banteay Srei (meaning ‘Citadel of Women’) was named after a tenth-century Cambodian temple, which is dedicated to the Hindu god Shiva. Banteay Srei evolved from an Australian NGO, the International Women’s Development Agency (IWDA) that had been working in Cambodia since 1985. Banteay Srei registered with the Cambodian Ministry of Interior as a local NGO in June 2000.

Banteay Srei’s work has influenced over 63,000 people representing over 12,000 families in the 53 target villages in 10 communes in 6 districts in Battambang and Siem Reap provinces.
