After testing the installation of cr\u00e8ches in the factories, we adapted the project to meet the needs of these women and launched the construction of 22 community cr\u00e8ches in villages<\/b> <b> with our local partner Krousar Yoeung.<\/b><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #f5a129;\"><b>A cr\u00e8che model that involves villagers and businesses<\/b><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">22 new cr\u00e8ches will be built between 2020 and 2023 in villages in Kompong Speu province to address the childcare needs of families working in the textile industry in Cambodia.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Each nursery will be able to accommodate 25 children from 6 to 36 months. The buildings will respect <\/span><b>environmental and health standards <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">to provide an environment that is conducive to the development of young children. Finally, the factories will pay part of the registration fees for the daycare center, making it more accessible to female workers.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With this project, in partnership with the local association Krousar Yoeung and the World Bank, we have imagined a <\/span><b>community daycare model<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. We are indeed convinced that <\/span><b>the participation of the villagers is essential to the viability of the project<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. That is why we will consult with workers, families, but also with local and national authorities.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The nurseries will be built near the living and working places of the workers. But they will not be the only ones to benefit. <\/span><b>The entire community will benefit from the project <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">since, in addition to the cr\u00e8ches, we will be setting up <\/span><b>outreach sessions: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">to remind the importance of early childhood development, on the nutrition of the youngest but also to fight against domestic and educational violence. These sessions will be free and open to all.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #f5a129;\"><b>Quality and accessible childcare facilities<\/b><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In Cambodia, <\/span><b>only 21% for children under 3 years of age<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> are cared for in facilities supervised by early childhood professionals. The majority of toddlers whose parents both work are most often looked after by grandparents who are overwhelmed by the notions of awakening and development.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Our nurseries will offer services <\/span><b>quality and affordable.<\/b><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"color: #f5a129;\"><b>An opportunity for economic empowerment for women<\/b><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cambodian law requires companies with more than 100 employees to set up a childcare system. However, today, <\/span><b>72% of companies do not<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. This has an impact on the economic activity of women who are often forced to resign, but also on the family circle as a whole, since young children are often entrusted to the care of grandparents.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Providing childcare services to women also allows them to be economically empowered while<\/span><b>they still provide 75% of unpaid domestic work<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. This project will allow women workers in the textile sector in Cambodia to find a better balance between private and professional life.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"color: #f5a129;\"><strong>To go further<\/strong><\/span> :<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&gt; 1st results of our<\/span><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/planete-eed.org\/en\/2019\/11\/14\/cambodia-petite-enfance-1ers-resultats-de-etude-gardes-denfants\/\"> study on childcare in Cambodia<\/a><\/span><\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0 (Nov 2019).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&gt; The test phase of the cr\u00e8che project for women textile workers: <\/span><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/planete-eed.org\/en\/2019\/05\/14\/creches-usines-textiles-cambodge\/\">interview with Nathalie Dupont, Director of Plan\u00e8te Enfants &amp; D\u00e9veloppement in Cambodia<\/a><\/span><\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> (May 2019).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">March 31, 2020<\/span><\/i><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>La garde des enfants des ouvri\u00e8res du textile reste un enjeu \u00e9norme au Cambodge.
