Since 1972, World Renew has been working with local partners in Cambodia to carry out community development programs that provide food security for families and support economic growth in rural communities.
WHAT WE DO
Cambodia has a daunting legacy of turmoil from the 20th century. Three years of devastation under the Pol Pot regime saw one-third of its people die, followed by another 15 years of civil war. Since the signed peace treaty and first election in 1993, the country has worked hard to rebuild communities and restore trust in leadership. Through training in governance, sustainable livelihoods, food security, health, and education, World Renew supports people in this country to make their own decisions and take initiatives that are most important to them.
