Our Non-Formal Education program includes a computer class so children’s learning keeps up with the times. Children get to know the keyboard, learn to type letters and numbers, and then practice typing out text. You can see from their smiles how much they’re enjoying it.

During this week's holiday, our team took a group of young people on a study and recreation trip to Phnom Chisor and Phnom Tamao Zoo, along with visits to other green spaces. The trip gave them a chance to learn about the environment and about rare wildlife.

Today our team completed our annual conflict of interest training. Staff worked through how to spot a conflict of interest and how to handle it properly. Transparency and integrity in our work start with each person understanding this.

Conversations about supporting young people often leave boys out. At M'Lop Tapang, boys and young men train as cooks at Sandan, learn trades at our Vocational Training Center, and share child protection messages through our Youth Network.

After a hot lunch, the students at our education center take a break. Some play. Some listen while a teacher reads them a storybook. A relaxed, safe place to rest before the afternoon.
