I have lived in Cambodia for a couple of years and initially met GoPhil through one of its partner organizations <a href=\"https:\/\/gophilanthropic.org\/campaigns\/pepy\/\">PEPY.<\/a> I have a background in fundraising and communications and have worked overseas with grassroots NGOs for around 5 years now.

We have been delighted to see the organizations we have been working with here thrive and go from strength to strength.\u2014 all these organizations are focused on education and some have varying degrees of family or community support woven into their core work. After 5 years of collaboration, GoPhil have seen them create more stable policies, procedures and donor bases. With our current partners doing so well and with me now on the ground, it was time for GoPhil to expand its reach by developing a deeper and broader network of of NGOs providing access to health, education and human rights.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>But where to start?<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>It is a big region with so many challenges\u2026 <\/span><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"p1\">Where to begin<\/h3>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s2\">I live in Cambodia and have done for a couple of years so this made Cambodia the logical choice of country to begin as a focus. With so much to consider, it made sense to begin with the fundamentals\u2014the lay of the land, the history and the key issues.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s2\">In Cambodia the most striking variables to consider are the high levels of poverty, migration to bordering countries for economic reasons, political unrest and levels of corruption, long term effects and PTSD from the Khmer rouge regime, dependence on and corruption within orphanages, environmental and land rights issues, the sex trade and trafficking. \u00a0It also struck me how may NGOs there were (of varying standards) and how dependent the country seems to be on them. <\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_3027\" style=\"width: 3010px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3027\" class=\"wp-image-3027\" src=\"https:\/\/gophilanthropic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/IOM-irregular-cambodian-migrants-return-to-Cambodia.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"3000\" height=\"1288\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gophilanthropic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/IOM-irregular-cambodian-migrants-return-to-Cambodia-146x64.jpg 146w, https:\/\/gophilanthropic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/IOM-irregular-cambodian-migrants-return-to-Cambodia-300x129.jpg 300w, https:\/\/gophilanthropic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/IOM-irregular-cambodian-migrants-return-to-Cambodia-768x330.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gophilanthropic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/IOM-irregular-cambodian-migrants-return-to-Cambodia-958x411.jpg 958w, https:\/\/gophilanthropic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/IOM-irregular-cambodian-migrants-return-to-Cambodia-1024x439.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/gophilanthropic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/IOM-irregular-cambodian-migrants-return-to-Cambodia.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 3000px) 100vw, 3000px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-3027\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Irregular migrants returning to Cambodia<\/p><\/div>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s2\">Despite having lived in Cambodia for years, I was shocked by some of my findings. <\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s2\">People can earn up to $5 a day in Thailand as opposed to $0.50 a day in rural Cambodia. <\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s2\">There is very poor provision for mental health in Cambodia, high levels of PTSD (including intergenerational trauma) and no outlet or support for those who still suffer from the effects of the Khmer Rouge Regime. <\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s2\">Many older family members look after children, whilst parents work abroad, and some of the older generation still fear education and therefore do not encourage their grandchildren to get educated.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s2\">Poor families take their children out of school to work and support the family as opposed to encouraging education.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s2\">People sometimes have to choose jobs that they do not want to do and that can lead to the risk of being trafficked. <\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s2\">Poverty, fear of and lack of education and hard choices are deeply linked. \u00a0The cycle of poverty is truly tough to break. I started to see the areas where GoPhil could broaden our focus. \u00a0<\/span><span class=\"s2\">The more I looked into the issues in Cambodia the more links I found to two key things \u2013 <b>education and trafficking.<\/b><span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s2\">As Nelson Mandela said \u2018Education is the most powerful weapon you can use to change the world.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_3026\" style=\"width: 969px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3026\" class=\"wp-image-3026 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/gophilanthropic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/free-to-shine.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"959\" height=\"760\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gophilanthropic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/free-to-shine-100x80.jpg 100w, https:\/\/gophilanthropic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/free-to-shine-300x238.jpg 300w, https:\/\/gophilanthropic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/free-to-shine-768x609.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gophilanthropic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/free-to-shine-958x759.jpg 958w, https:\/\/gophilanthropic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/free-to-shine.jpg 959w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 959px) 100vw, 959px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-3026\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">GoPhil partner Free to Shine<\/p><\/div>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s2\">It seemed so elemental,<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>but I kept coming back to the simple principle that if people feared education less, respected it more, the cycle of poverty could be broken.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 E<\/span>ducation issues are most definitely a root cause of trafficking&#8211; vulnerable\u00a0people are trafficked due to trickery and naivety stemming from lack of education on the victims part.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 T<\/span>hose most at risk of trafficking were people in poverty and with few options, mostly due to lack of education.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>Going back to these fundamentals really helped our team create the framework for which types of organizations we might support in Cambodia.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s2\">The next steps:<\/span><\/h3>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s2\">From the research I could see a clear need for education and anti trafficking work to be approached in combination. \u00a0I looked for organizations seeking to use education and empowerment as a tool to fight trafficking \u2013 right from the root, empowering those from poor backgrounds with more skills and opportunities and reducing the risk of them being trafficked. \u00a0GoPhil already has some great education partners, but as I drilled into this area, a definite gap for those leaving education and gaining skilled employment could be seen. We decided to focus our efforts to work with organization\u2019s who were covering this gap \u2013 working on soft skills, supplementary education, confidence building, CV and cover letter writing, interview technique, job finding skills, expectations and rights in the workplace and much more.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s2\">The challenge was the there are so many NGOs in Cambodia\u2014 it would take time to identify those who fit our criteria.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>I sourced\u00a0near one hundred NGOs working on job ready skills and \/ or trafficking through online research, word of mouth and networking. After a more thorough look at their work\u00a0and ethos, I personally met with around ten of them. From here, the GoPhil team selected three to vet more deeply\u00a0to ensure our synergies were aligned .<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>GoPhil has a robust vetting process guided by strong ethics.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>We select grassroots organizations who have their beneficiaries at the center of their mission, programs that show particular innovation, and show transparency in all that they do. \u00a0In addition, we source NGOs who have a natural desire to share their learnings as\u00a0we believe this is how impact and ideas are spread most effectively.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s2\">We were thrilled that three NGOs were fully vetted and accepted as GoPhil partners. The next step\u2014bring them into the GoPhil network and supporting them with pilot grants.<\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_2534\" style=\"width: 1442px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2534\" class=\"wp-image-2534 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/gophilanthropic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/about-us.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1432\" height=\"294\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gophilanthropic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/about-us-300x62.png 300w, https:\/\/gophilanthropic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/about-us-768x158.png 768w, https:\/\/gophilanthropic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/about-us-958x197.png 958w, https:\/\/gophilanthropic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/about-us-1024x210.png 1024w, https:\/\/gophilanthropic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/about-us.png 1432w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1432px) 100vw, 1432px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-2534\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">GoPhil patners ODA<\/p><\/div>\n<h3 class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s2\">Our new partners<\/span><\/h3>\n<p class=\"p1\"><strong><span class=\"s2\">Community Care First Organization (CCFO)<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s2\">CCFO have been leaders in the field of transitioning out of residential care and supporting families and children with reintegration, kinship or foster care.
