During this period, the organization established its governance structure, developed its initial mediation programmes, and began building public awareness of mediation and dialogue-based conflict resolution in Cambodia.
CCM expanded its partnerships with government institutions, civil society organizations, development partners, and professional networks to strengthen mediation awareness and institutional collaboration. The organization broadened its training programmes, community engagement, and advocacy efforts to promote mediation as an accessible and constructive approach to resolving disputes.
As Cambodia's social and economic landscape evolved, CCM diversified its programmes to respond to increasingly complex disputes. Its work expanded beyond community mediation to include commercial, financial, labour, family, land, organizational, and institutional disputes. During this period, CCM also strengthened its work in dialogue facilitation, conflict transformation, peacebuilding, policy engagement, and professional capacity development.

The organization enhanced mediator training and accreditation, developed institutional policies and operational frameworks, expanded research and knowledge-sharing initiatives, and advanced collaboration with national and international partners.

By 2028, CCM aspires to be nationally and internationally recognized as:
